Product Overview
Whatman Grade 595 FF is a high-performance cellulose filter paper designed for fast and efficient filtration in laboratory settings. Engineered with a unique blend of cellulose fibers, this filter paper offers exceptional wet strength, ensuring durability even under demanding conditions. Its low ash content makes it ideal for applications where purity is critical, minimizing contamination risks. The medium retention capacity balances flow rate and particle capture, making it versatile for a wide range of filtration tasks. The smooth surface and uniform thickness contribute to consistent filtration performance, reducing variability in results. This grade is particularly well-suited for applications requiring rapid filtration without compromising on particle retention. The natural cellulose composition provides chemical compatibility with a broad spectrum of solvents and aqueous solutions. Each sheet maintains dimensional stability during filtration, preventing tearing or deformation under pressure. The filter paper’s high porosity allows for quick liquid passage while effectively trapping fine particles. Its neutral pH ensures it won’t interfere with sensitive analytical procedures. The consistent quality across all sizes guarantees reproducible results batch after batch. This filter paper represents an optimal balance between filtration speed and particle retention, making it a reliable choice for demanding laboratory filtration needs.
FAQs
1. What is the maximum operating temperature for Whatman Grade 595 FF filter paper?
This filter paper can typically withstand temperatures up to 120°C for short periods during filtration processes.
2. How does the flow rate of Grade 595 FF compare to other Whatman grades?
Grade 595 FF offers a faster flow rate than most qualitative grades while maintaining good particle retention, making it ideal for applications requiring both speed and efficiency.
3. Can this filter paper be used with organic solvents?
The cellulose composition provides good compatibility with many organic solvents, though pre-wetting with the solvent is recommended for optimal performance.
4. What is the typical ash content of this filter paper?
Grade 595 FF has a very low ash content of less than 0.06%, making it suitable for applications where mineral contamination must be minimized.
5. How should this filter paper be stored for long-term use?
Store in a cool, dry environment in its original packaging to prevent moisture absorption and maintain filtration performance.
