LabExact Polypropylene (PP) Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - LE-IWT-ES10129
Sample preparation for chromatography often ends with a syringe filter on the path to the vial. Polypropylene tolerates solvents and acids that degrade many membranes while sustaining throughput as a depth medium and keeps water out during solvent and gas-purge steps. The PP housing sustains efficient flow on viscous samples and delivers a chemically clean filtrate to the downstream step. When method reproducibility rests on consistent sample prep, syringe filtration holds that standard injection after injection.
Membrane Characteristics
- Operating pressure reaches 72 psi with a burst rating near 116 psi
- Sustains throughput on particulate-laden solvent samples
- Nominal depth matrix distributes particulate load progressively through the medium volume
- Aqueous liquid is repelled while air passes freely through
- Broad solvent tolerance includes glycols, aliphatic alcohols, and dilute salt solutions
Housing Characteristics
- Low moisture absorption keeps the housing dimensionally stable through humid storage and shipping
- Thermal-bonded construction keeps adhesives out of the fluid path
- Withstands standard 121°C steam autoclave cycles without softening or structural distortion
- Housing tolerates elevated-temperature aqueous and solvent sample filtration up to about 80°C without softening
An aggressive solvent can leach or break down a vulnerable filter and carry debris into your prep. Solvent-stream filtration handles the solvents and reagents your methods rely on from initial prep through final use.
