Faster flow, higher retention than cellulose filters
Used as prefilters and for gravimetric analyses. Suitable for many corrosive applications.
- Low hygroscopicity
- Chemically and biologically inert, with no organic binders
- Offer higher retention efficiency of fine particles (<3μm in size)
- Resist clogging for greater loading capacity than cellulose paper filters
- Autoclavable and usable to 500°C (932°F)
- Filters should be used flat: folding will break the glass fibers
