Polypropylene (PP) Syringe Filters - SPEC18201

Analytical and industrial laboratories require maximum flow rates for extremely turbid samples to enable rapid sample processing and protect downstream equipment. The 5.0 µm hydrophobic polypropylene membrane in 20mm diameter delivers the highest throughput for heavily contaminated organic solvent samples. Your prefiltration operations benefit from rapid debris removal that protects downstream equipment and secondary filtration stages from premature fouling. The ABS housing design combines structural integrity with chemical resistance appropriate for aggressive solvent processing in routine laboratory operations.

Key Membrane Characteristics

• 5.0 µm hydrophobic polypropylene membrane provides maximum flow rates for rapid processing of extremely particulate-laden organic samples
• 20mm diameter compact format provides practical prefiltration capacity for routine sample volumes
• Hydrophobic surface properties naturally shed aqueous solutions while allowing organic solvents and non-polar compounds to pass freely
• Maximum operating pressure of 72.5 psi with 116 psi burst rating handles challenging samples without membrane failure concerns
• Temperature tolerance to 80°C supports warm solvent filtration and elevated temperature processing applications

Key Construction Characteristics

• ABS housing material provides durable enclosure with chemical resistance suitable for organic solvent prefiltration operations
• Double luer lock connections on inlet and outlet secure syringes during sample processing, preventing disconnection under pressure
• 20mm diameter configuration handles routine sample volumes efficiently during prefiltration operations
• Nonsterile supply format allows you to apply sterilization methods when your protocols require sterile operation

Your nonsterile filters accommodate sterilization when required for integration into laboratory protocols. The 5.0 µm pore size enables the fastest processing of heavily particulate samples while the 20mm diameter handles routine sample volumes efficiently. Each filter combines hydrophobic polypropylene's broad chemical compatibility with efficient coarse debris removal, delivering reliable prefiltration performance for demanding organic solvent applications across diverse laboratory settings.
