Qualitative Filter Paper Sheet 60×60 CM 100 Sheets Per Pack

Description

Qualitative Filter Paper Sheet 60×60 CM Big square Filter paper, 100 Sheets (for industry and laboratory use). A qualitative Filter Paper Sheet is a semi-permeable paper barrier placed perpendicular to a liquid or air flow. It is used to separate fine substances from liquids or air. Filter papers are widely used in laboratory experiments across many different fields, from biology to chemistry laboratory. The type of filter used will differ according to the purpose of the procedure and the chemicals involved. Generally, filter papers are used with laboratory techniques such as gravity or vacuum filtration. These sheets are mostly used in chemistry labs in Bangladesh.

Qualitative filter paper sheets are commonly used in laboratories for various applications, including filtering solutions and separating substances based on particle size. They are made from cellulose and are designed to retain fine particles while allowing liquids to pass through. Here are some key points about qualitative filter paper:

Types and Grades

• Various Grades: Qualitative filter paper is available in different grades, each designed for specific filtration tasks, such as removing coarse particles or collecting precipitates.
• Common Types: Common grades include Whatman filters (e.g., Whatman 1, 2, 3) that differ in particle retention and flow rates.

Applications of Qualitative Filter Paper Sheet

• Analytical Chemistry: Used for clarifying liquids and collecting precipitates in titrations and other analyses.
• Environmental Testing: Employed in water and soil analysis to separate contaminants.
• Biology and Medicine: Useful for filtering biological samples and preparing them for further analysis.

Characteristics

• Porosity: The size of the pores determines the type of particles that can be filtered.
• Thickness: Affects the flow rate and capacity of the filter.
• Chemical Compatibility: Many types are designed to be chemically inert, making them suitable for a variety of solvents.

Usage Tips for Filter Paper Sheet

• Pre-wet the Filter: For optimal performance, pre-wet the filter with the solvent to be used, which can help prevent clogging and improve flow rates.
• Proper Handling: Avoid touching the filter with bare hands to prevent contamination.
