Whatman 0.45 µm Pore Size PTFE Membrane, TE Range (TE36)

Whatman PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Membrane filters are highly specialized filtration materials used in laboratory applications for separating particles, clarifying solutions, and performing various analytical processes. PTFE is a synthetic polymer known for its excellent chemical resistance, thermal stability, and non-stick properties.PTFE membrane filters are hydrophobic, meaning they repel water and attract oily substances, making them suitable for filtration tasks involving non-aqueous solutions, solvents, and aggressive chemicals. They are commonly used in applications such as air and gas filtration, sample preparation for HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography), and filtration of aggressive liquids.One of the key advantages of PTFE membranes is their resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, bases, and organic solvents. This makes them versatile and reliable for use in various laboratory environments where compatibility with aggressive substances is essential.PTFE membrane filters are available in different pore sizes to accommodate specific filtration requirements, ranging from microfiltration to ultrafiltration levels. Their durable construction and inert nature ensure consistent performance and reliable particle retention.Overall, Whatman PTFE Membrane filters are trusted by researchers, scientists, and technicians for their chemical resistance, durability, and versatility in a wide range of laboratory filtration tasks involving aggressive substances.
