Product Overview
The Whatman PE Drain Disc Membrane Filter is engineered for high-performance filtration in laboratory settings. Made from pure polyethylene, this hydrophobic membrane ensures reliable separation of liquids and gases while resisting chemical degradation. Its uniform pore structure guarantees consistent flow rates, making it ideal for applications requiring sterile or particulate-free results. The filter?s robust construction prevents fiber shedding, ensuring sample integrity during critical processes. Compatible with a wide range of solvents and aqueous solutions, it maintains structural stability even under aggressive conditions. The PE Drain Disc is particularly effective for air or gas venting, where moisture retention must be minimized. Its inert nature eliminates the risk of leachables, making it suitable for sensitive analyses. Available in multiple diameters, this filter adapts to various filtration setups, from small-scale experiments to large-volume processing. Whether used in research, quality control, or routine lab work, the Whatman PE Drain Disc delivers precision and reliability, reducing the need for repeat testing and ensuring accurate outcomes.
FAQs
1. What is the primary material used in the Whatman PE Drain Disc Membrane Filter?
This filter is made from high-purity polyethylene, which provides hydrophobic properties and chemical resistance.
2. Can this filter be used for both liquid and gas filtration?
Yes, the Whatman PE Drain Disc is designed for both liquid and gas filtration, including air or gas venting applications.
3. How does the hydrophobic nature of this membrane benefit filtration?
The hydrophobic nature prevents water or aqueous solutions from passing through, making it ideal for separating liquids from gases or filtering non-aqueous solvents.
4. What solvents are compatible with this filter?
It is compatible with a wide range of organic solvents, including alcohols, hydrocarbons, and halogenated solvents, due to its chemical resistance.
5. Are there any storage conditions to maintain the filter?s performance?
Store the filters in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to preserve their integrity and performance.
