Product Overview
Whatman Grade 1 cellulose filter paper is a versatile, acid-washed medium designed for general laboratory filtration tasks requiring moderate particle retention. With a particle retention rate of 11µm, it balances flow rate and filtration efficiency, making it ideal for routine qualitative analysis. The high-purity cellulose composition ensures minimal extractables, reducing interference in sensitive applications. Its uniform thickness and porosity provide consistent results, while the acid-washing process enhances chemical resistance. Available in a wide range of diameters and sheet sizes, this filter paper adapts to various filtration setups, from small-scale experiments to bulk processing. The medium retention grade effectively captures fine precipitates while maintaining a steady flow rate, optimizing workflow efficiency. Its compatibility with most aqueous and organic solvents expands its utility across diverse lab protocols. The filter paper’s smooth surface minimizes particle shedding, preserving sample integrity. Whether used in gravity or vacuum filtration, Whatman Grade 1 delivers reliable performance for standard lab procedures. The pack sizes cater to both low-volume and high-throughput requirements, ensuring cost-effective solutions for different operational scales.
