Product Description
When precision matters in your lab work, Whatman Ashless Clippings (1703-050) deliver unmatched purity and reliability. Designed for gravimetric analysis and critical filtration tasks, these acid-washed clippings ensure minimal ash residue, making them ideal for quantitative research, environmental testing, and industrial applications where accuracy is non-negotiable.
Unlike standard filter papers, Whatman’s ashless grade undergoes rigorous processing to remove trace metals and impurities, guaranteeing consistent results in sensitive procedures. The pre-cut clippings save time in lab prep, while the uniform porosity ensures efficient particle retention without compromising flow rate. Whether you’re analyzing soil samples, testing air quality, or conducting pharmaceutical research, these clippings provide the dependability researchers trust.
Why lab professionals prefer Whatman Ashless Clippings: The low ash content (less than 0.01%) eliminates interference in weight-based measurements, while the high wet strength prevents tearing during prolonged filtration. Compatible with both organic and inorganic solvents, they’re a versatile choice for diverse protocols. For labs prioritizing reproducibility, eqipped offers these clippings in convenient pack sizes—100g, 250g, and 500g—to match your workflow needs.

FAQs
What makes Whatman Ashless Clippings different from regular filter paper?
Ashless clippings undergo acid washing to remove trace metals and inorganic impurities, resulting in an ash content of less than 0.01%. This makes them ideal for gravimetric analysis where residual ash could affect measurements.
Can these clippings be used with aggressive solvents?
Yes, they’re compatible with most organic and inorganic solvents, including acids and bases, but always check chemical compatibility for your specific protocol.
What pack size should I choose for occasional lab use?
The 100g pack is perfect for small-scale research or teaching labs, while the 500g option offers better value for high-throughput facilities.
Are these clippings pre-sterilized?
No, they’re not sterile. For microbiological applications, autoclave or use sterile-grade Whatman papers.
How do I dispose of used Whatman Ashless Clippings?
Follow your lab’s chemical waste protocols. If contaminated with hazardous materials, dispose of as regulated waste.
