Tisch SKU: SF15015

Tisch Scientific PTFE Syringe Filters, 5 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - SF15015

Tisch Scientific customer service specialists focus on laboratory products and can help source the right solution for specific applications. Across analytical workflows, the syringe filter is where particulates leave the sample stream. Hydrophobic PTFE repels water while passing gases and solvents freely and stays chemically inert against solvents, acids, and alkalis. The polypropylene housing holds a reliable seal against the membrane edge while resisting aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols and contributes minimal extractables to the filtrate. When method reproducibility rests on consistent sample prep, syringe filtration holds that standard injection after injection.

Technical Specifications

• Filters aggressive organic solvents without swelling or breakdown
• Hydrophobic membrane repels water for gas, vent, and solvent filtration
• Absolute pore size rating gives consistent results across protocols
• Low extractables keep the chromatographic background clean
• Chemically inert against aggressive solvents, strong acids, and alkalis

Housing Specifications

• Thermal-bonded construction keeps adhesives out of the fluid path
• Medical-grade polypropylene with broad chemical compatibility
• Reliable housing-to-membrane seal prevents bypass at rated pressure
• Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service

Clarifying organic mobile phases before injection protects your chromatography while standing up to the solvent. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples from reaction mixtures and crude extracts through final analysis.
