Cytiva Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 541 Circles

Description

Recommended when fast filtration of a gelatinous precipitate for gravimetric analysis is performed on a strongly acidic or alkali solution. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 541 Circles are acid hardened cellulose filters, which reduces ash to an extremely low level.

Whatman hardened ashless quantitative filter papers are acid-hardened to give high wet strength and chemical resistance with extremely low ash content. They are suitable for a wide range of critical filtration procedures. 

• Large nominal particle retention for fast analytical filtration.
• High wet-strength
• High chemical resistance to strong acid and alkali suspensions
• Retention of gelatinous precipitate
• 22 μm nominal particle retention rating
• Fast flow rate (Herzberg filtration speed 34 s)
• Maximum of 0.006% ash concentration
• Quantitative determination of milk sediment

Applications

• Use as an animal foodstuff filter for determining fiber content
• Determination of gelatin content in milk and cream
• Quantification of chloride in cement, as well as chloride and phosphorous in coal and coke
