Hydrophilic PTFE (wwPTFE) Syringe Filters, 0.45µm, 25mm - AP-4920
Simplify your laboratory inventory with the Hydrophilic PTFE (wwPTFE) Syringe Filters, a truly universal filter capable of handling aggressive solvents and water-based samples alike. At the core of the filter is a stabilized PTFE matrix that provides universal chemical resistance without the hydrophobicity of standard Teflon. Complementing the membrane's purity, the housing's thermal bonding eliminates the need for adhesives, removing a common source of extractable contamination. Ultimately, this rigorous attention to manufacturing quality ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility, allowing laboratories to standardize their workflows with total confidence.
