Hardened Ashless Filter Papers for Quantitative Analysis

Hardened ashless filters (ash content approx. 0.002%), especially recommended for vacuum and pressure filtration, and for the use of acidic and alkaline solutions.

  • Made of super-refined cotton linters and cellulose
  • Acid-washed and free of minerals and metallic ions, ideal for the detection of metallic ions
  • Very high wet strength; easy to scrap off or wash off precipitates
  • Hardened by small quantities of nitrogen-containing resin, which does not introduce significant impurities into the filtrate
  • High resistance to aggressive chemical components, like sulphuric and nitric acids (up to 40 % at 50 ° Celsius) and alkalis (up to 10 % at 20 ° Celsius)
  • For analytical applications, routine quantitative and /or gravimetric procedures

 

These filters are available as filter circles with the following sizes (in mm):

110 – 125 – 150 – 185.

Other sizes, sheets and special cuts are available on request.
