Description

Ahlstrom’s qualitative grades of filter paper are, by definition, recommended for use in analytical methods, which determine or identify particulate constituents of a mixture irrespective of the amount present. Qualitative filter papers are often used in routine separation work that still requires high purity and consistent performance. Ahlstrom offers a complete range of low ash filter papers for general laboratory work that provides you with the correct combination of particle retention, filtration speed, loading capacity, and wet-strength. All our qualitative grades consist of > 95% super refined a-cellulose and linter fibers. Grade 613 Qualitative Filter Papers:

key features:

• Qualitative analysis
• Low ash content 0.06%
• Untreated Consistent performance
• Wet-strengthened grades available
• Custom Cut
• Bulk packaging

Standard Grades (Non-Wet-Strengthened) Standard qualitative filter papers are suitable for quadrant folded or gravity flow applications. Grade 613 Qualitative Filter Papers contain a high level of alpha-cellulose that provides high purity but will weaken when wet. The inherent strength of standard (untreated) grades does not pose a problem when they are used in routine quadrant folded applications. We do not recommend these grades for use in vacuum work or when wet handling is required.

Ahlstrom 613: 6um, Medium Speed. This is a strong filter paper with a medium flow rate and retention. Ahlstrom 613 is commonly used in student laboratories. This strong general-purpose filter is also useful in Buchner funnels for barium carbonate, lead chromate and beryllium hydroxides.
