WHATMAN: Grade 3 Qualitative Filter Paper

Grade 3 is double the thickness of Grade 1, so it can hold more precipitate without clogging and has increased wet strength. It is designed for use in Büchner funnels, and the high absorbency makes Grade 3 well suited for sample transport after collection.

Category: Tag:

These cellulose filters are used in qualitative analytical techniques to determine and identify materials. Prepleated qualitative filters are also available, which give improved flow rate and increased loading capacity compared to equivalent flat filters.

Grade 3: 6 um (medium flow filter paper)

Double the thickness of Grade 1 with still finer particle retention and excellent loading capacity; more precipitate can be held without clogging. The extra thickness gives increased wet strength and makes this grade highly suitable for use in Büchner funnels. The high absorbency is particularly valuable when the paper is used as a sample carrier.
