Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SPEC18211

High-flow organic solvent processing creates operational bottlenecks when hydrophilic membranes degrade under aggressive chemical exposure, forcing you to compromise between chemical compatibility and rapid gross filtration in critical prefiltration applications. Hydrophobic 5.0µm PVDF membrane technology addresses this limitation with exceptional solvent resistance. Advanced membrane construction with validated 116psi burst pressure, double Luer Lock connections, and polypropylene housing rated to 80°C provides the chemical durability your workflows demand when processing chemically challenging samples.

Key PVDF Membrane Characteristics

Hydrophobic 5.0µm PVDF membrane requires alcohol pre-wetting for aqueous processing but enables specialized air venting applications and aggressive solvent filtration unavailable with hydrophilic materials
Broad chemical compatibility withstands alcohols, ketones, halogenated hydrocarbons, and esters, supporting sample preparation workflows when standard membrane materials degrade under aggressive solvent exposure
Low protein binding properties preserve biomolecule concentrations during coarse prefiltration, essential when your downstream analytical methods depend on maintaining accurate sample composition across processing steps
Extended temperature stability to 80°C accommodates warm sample processing and elevated-temperature solvent applications that exceed thermal limitations of temperature-sensitive membrane chemistries
Open 5.0µm pore structure removes gross particulates while maintaining exceptional flow rates through challenging sample matrices, protecting downstream equipment from large debris contamination

Key Construction Characteristics

Robust polypropylene housing withstands operating pressures to 72.5psi and temperatures to 80°C, delivering mechanical durability when your processing conditions challenge standard equipment
Validated 116psi burst pressure ensures structural integrity during high-pressure filtration operations, preventing catastrophic membrane failure when protocols demand reliable construction across diverse sample matrices
Double Luer Lock connections secure both inlet and outlet ports, eliminating accidental disconnection risks when handling aggressive solvents under pressure in critical applications
25mm diameter platform supports medium-volume gross filtration for 10-100ml samples, balancing high-flow processing capacity with material economy in your routine laboratory operations

When your laboratory processes high-volume chemically challenging samples where standard membranes fail under aggressive solvents, hydrophobic PVDF construction delivers the solvent resistance essential for reliable gross filtration. The 25mm platform with 116psi burst pressure and 80°C capability processes medium-volume samples consistently. Combined with double Luer Lock security and open pore structure for high flow rates, this configuration ensures your laboratory achieves the operational confidence required for organic solvent prefiltration, air venting applications, and chemically demanding gross filtration where membrane compatibility and flow characteristics determine processing success.
