Phase Separator Filter Paper - 2200-270
Replacing separatory funnels with gravity-fed phase separation paper reduces glassware breakage risk and simplifies extraction procedures. Single-pass gravity separation through treated paper replaces the multiple drain-and-shake cycles that extend funnel-based extraction time. Ultimately, from fiber selection through final inspection, the manufacturing process ensures every sheet meets the performance specifications of its grade.
Key Filter Paper Characteristics
- Silicone treatment penetrates the full fiber depth, providing consistent hydrophobic properties throughout the paper thickness.
- Standard cellulose construction eliminates chemical treatment steps that could introduce background contamination in sensitive analytical methods.
- Phase separator paper replaces separatory funnels for routine liquid-liquid extractions, reducing breakage risk and processing time.
- Hydrophobic surface treatment repels water-based phases while allowing organic solvents to pass through by gravity alone.
- Silicone-treated cellulose provides a hydrophobic surface that passes organic phases while retaining aqueous solutions for clean separations.
Scaling your method from development to routine production requires paper consistency at every lot, and the specifications above provide that assurance. Reliable organic passage and aqueous retention eliminate the retry cycles emulsion formation causes in your extraction procedures. Take control of your sample preparation variables and ensure that your data reflects the true nature of your work, rather than the quality of your consumables.
