PCTE Black Membrane Disc, 0.2µm
The PCTE Black Membrane Disc at 0.2µm is engineered from a fine, microporous polycarbonate film, specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of blood assays, along with high-purity and general filtration applications. Although polycarbonate is generally hydrophobic, this membrane is enhanced with a wetting agent to effectively transform it into a hydrophilic medium.
Manufactured through a precise two-stage process, this membrane showcases unmatched quality and consistency. The unique method employed ensures stringent control over both pore size and density, resulting in a membrane whose physical characteristics align perfectly with your specifications. The final product features a thin, translucent, microporous polycarbonate film with an exceptionally smooth, flat surface, effectively capturing all particles larger than its pore size, making it an optimal choice for blood sample collection and purification processes.
Key Characteristics:
- Absolute Pore Size and Density: Guarantees liquid flow control and efficiently captures 100% of cells exceeding the specified pore size.
- Smooth and Glass-Like Surface: The planar design is ideal for microscopic particle identification, enhancing analytical capabilities.
- Exceptional Strength: With a tensile strength of 207 bar (> 3000 psi), the membrane maintains its pore size and density without stretching.
- Low Extractables: Ensures that tests yield clean results, promoting consistent and reliable data.
- Minimal Absorption/Adsorption: Maximizes recoverable solutions, making it highly efficient for critical applications.
Applications:
- Flow control of reagents in assays
- General filtration processes
- Precise filtration and prefiltration tasks
- Effective removal of red blood cells from plasma
