Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Syringe Filters - SF14477
Featuring hydrophobic PTFE membrane technology in sterile packaging for high-volume aggressive organic solvent clarification requiring contamination-free processing. A 0.45µm pore configuration delivers efficient particulate removal while maintaining complete chemical inertness to concentrated acids, bases, and challenging reagents. Tisch Scientific combines ultra-resistant PTFE membranes with large 33mm construction to maximize throughput for production-scale sterile clarification of chemically aggressive samples.
Key Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Characteristics
- Hydrophobic membrane requires alcohol pre-wetting for aqueous solution compatibility
- Universal chemical resistance withstands all organic solvents, acids, and bases without degradation
- Exceptional thermal stability maintains integrity at 60°C continuous operating temperature
- 0.45µm pore size provides reliable clarification and coarse particulate removal
- Sterile individual packaging ensures contamination-free filtration for sensitive applications
Key Construction Characteristics
- Polypropylene housing delivers chemical resistance while withstanding 87psi burst pressure
- Dual Luer-Lok/Luer Slip compatibility accommodates all standard syringe configurations
- Large 33mm diameter maximizes filtration area for high-volume sterile sample processing
- 100µl holdup volume minimizes loss despite a larger format when filtering valuable reagents
SF14477 syringe filters achieve exceptional 59ml/min flow rates through an expanded 4.9cm² active membrane area, dramatically accelerating your high-volume sterile filtration workflows even with viscous organic solvents. Outstanding 120ml throughput capacity supports your production-scale requirements while maintaining certified sterility throughout processing. Pre-sterilized units maintain 7.25psi bubble point integrity in absolute ethyl alcohol, ensuring reliable performance for your critical large-volume applications demanding both absolute chemical resistance and validated contamination-free processing.
