Cellulose Nitrate Filter Paper
Description of Membrane Filter Paper Sartorius:
Membrane Filter Paper Sartorius is a type of filter paper made from cellulose (plant-based fibers) that has been treated with nitric acid to produce cellulose nitrate. This material is often used in various laboratory applications due to its unique properties.
- Filtration: It is used for filtering and separating particles in liquid or air. The porous structure of the filter paper allows it to retain solid particles while letting liquids or gases pass through.
- Chemical Reactivity: Being made from cellulose nitrate, it is more chemically reactive than standard cellulose filter paper, which makes it suitable for specific chemical applications. However, it can be sensitive to certain chemicals, such as solvents, and may degrade in the presence of acids or bases.
- Flammability: Due to the nitrate content, cellulose nitrate is highly flammable and should be handled carefully, especially around heat or open flames.
- Applications: It can be used in laboratories for filtration in chemical analysis, air sampling, and other scientific procedures. It is also sometimes used in the preparation of certain types of photographic film.
