PTFE SYRINGE FILTERS
DESCRIPTION
![]() |
Recommend for HPLC and GC samples, sterilisation and clarification of most solvents and filtration of gases-venting. |
- Incorporated PTFE ( polytetrafluorethylene) membrane fixed without adhesive to a polypropylene housing.
- Hydrophobic.
- Very high flow rate.
- High chemical resistance to most solvents and acids.
- Free from wetting agents.
- They must be pre-wetted with a solvent such as ethanol or isopropanol before filtering aqueous samples.
- The filter diameter is related to the volume to be filtered:
- <1 ml – 4 mm
- <5 ml – 15 mm
- <100 ml – 25 mm
- Pore size 0.20 µm and 0.45 µm.
- Sterilization by autoclaving at 121 ºC and ethylene oxide.

APPLICATIONS
- Sterilisation and clarification of most acids and aggressive solvents
- Degassing solvents
- Ventingof containers, and sterile air, gas and aerosol applications
- Protection within vacuum pump
- Cleaning of small volume samples for HPLC and GC applications, which require greater chemical resistance than regenerated cellulose syringes (JCR)
- Excellent for sterilisation and clarification of most solvents (such as acetone, dimethyl formamide or DMSO), and of very aggressive or acidic solutions.
- Filtration and degassing of solvents before being analysed and venting of sterile containers.
