PTFE Syringe Filters – Hydrophobic
JM Science hydrophobic PTFE syringe filters are engineered for aggressive organic solvents, highly non-polar liquids, and strong chemical environments.
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) membranes offer exceptional chemical resistance and thermal stability, making them the preferred choice for solvent-based HPLC sample preparation and industrial filtration applications.
Designed for high flow rates, low extractables, and reliable particle retention, these filters help protect analytical columns and improve data reproducibility.
These hydrophobic PTFE syringe filters are ideal for filtering aggressive organic solvents prior to HPLC and GC analysis."
Ideal Applications
• Organic solvent filtration
• Aggressive chemical samples
• Strong acids and alkalis
• Non-polar and corrosive solvents
• Industrial chromatography
• Air and gas filtration
⚠ Not recommended for purely aqueous samples unless pre-wetted with alcohol.
