Cellulose fiber papers

Use for quantitative air pollution analysis as a paper tape for impregnation when determining gaseous compounds at high flow rates or for quantitative air pollution analysis. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 41 Circles are commonly used in preparing samples for metal analysis after nitric acid digestion.

Filters and retains course particles for monitoring air pollution. Whatman™ Qualitative Filter Paper: Grade 4 Circles are used when high flow rates in air pollution monitoring are required and the collection of fine particles is not critical.

Filters and retains extremely small particles. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 42 Circles are suitable for processes that require ashing.

Ideal for clarifying and removing particles of 20μm and larger, and in applications that do not require a low-ash or ashless paper.

Saves time required to fit circles into conical funnels. Whatman™ Grade 2V Folded Qualitative Filter Papers provide medium flow and nominal particle retention rating of 8µm at a higher filtration speed.

Supports collection of coarse and gelatinous precipitates with minimal fiber shredding, even when wet. Whatman™ Grade 54 Quantitative Filter Paper has a hard, smooth surface to sustain vacuum and suction filtration.

Used in many air sampling filter applications, including sampling of acidic gases, stacks, flues, and aerosols. Whatman™ Quartz Air Sampling Filters are sequentially numbered according to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards and are suitable for most applications.

Covers a wide range of laboratory applications and is frequently used for clarifying liquids. Whatman™ Qualitative Filter Paper: Grade 1 Circles are widely used standard grade filter papers for routine applications with medium retention and flow rates.

Supports accurate analysis in applications sensitive to very low levels of background contamination. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 40 Circles are additionally useful in gravimetric analysis where ash content might affect weight measurements of combusted samples.

Manufactured to reduce silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and ferric oxide levels

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.

Enables strong retention for very fine crystalline precipitates. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 50 Circles withstand shredding, wet handling, and precipitate removal by scraping.

Retains and absorbs more than Grade 1 filters, with a corresponding increase in filtration time. Whatman™ Qualitative Filter Paper: Grade 2 Circles are used for monitoring specific contaminants in the atmosphere and in soil testing.

Ideal for clarifying and removing particles of 1μm and larger, and in applications that do not require a low-ash or ashless paper

Coarse paper with creped or smooth surface

Covers a wide range of laboratory applications and is frequently used for clarifying liquids. Whatman™ Qualitative Filter Paper: Grade 1 Sheets are widely used standard grade filter paper for routine applications with medium retention and flow rates.

Coarse cellulose fiber papers remove particles >25μm

Coarse retention

Used for high precipitate capacity and increased wet strength. Whatman™ Qualitative Grade Plain Circles and Sheets - Grade 3 provide double the thickness of Whatman Grade 1.

Use for quantitative air pollution analysis as a paper tape for impregnation when determining gaseous compounds at high flow rates or for quantitative air pollution analysis. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 41 Sheets are commonly used in preparing samples for metal analysis after nitric acid digestion.

Ideal for clarifying and removing particles of 1μm and larger, and in applications that do not require a low-ash or ashless paper

Enables strong retention for very fine crystalline precipitates. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 50 White Smear Tab Sheets withstand shredding, wet handling, and precipitate removal by scraping.

Fits into top of flask to prevent partial loss of product during freeze drying.

Ideal for clarifying and removing particles of 1μm and larger, and in applications that do not require a low-ash or ashless paper

Reduces overall ash content and the amount of time required for filtration. Whatman™ Grade 44 Quantitative Filter Paper provides faster gravimetric analysis with filter thinner material.

Specifically developed for measuring the Ignition Strength (IS) of Cigarettes. Whatman™ Qualitative Filter Paper Circles - Grade 2 for IS Measurement are manufactured under strict control; each lot is tested and certified as meeting the requirements of ASTM E2187.

Retains medium fine precipitates using material with virtually no ash content. Whatman™ Grade 589/2 Quantitative Filter Paper is used when medium fine precipitates are being collected and papers must be ashed to support analysis.

Use as a gravimetric filter during analysis of metals in acidic or alkaline solutions and in the collection of hydroxides. Whatman™ Quantitative Filter Paper: Grade 540 Circles acid-treated surface prevents tearing during filtration and allows the user to scrape precipitates from the paper.
