PCTE Black Membrane Disc, 0.6μm

The PCTE Black Membrane Disc, measuring 0.6μm, is crafted from a high-quality, thin, microporous polycarbonate film. This innovative design is engineered for critical applications, making it the preferred choice for blood assays and both high-purity and general filtration processes. While polycarbonate is inherently hydrophobic, each membrane undergoes specialized treatment with a wetting agent to enhance its hydrophilic properties.

Manufactured using a sophisticated two-stage production process, this membrane is subject to rigorous quality control standards. This meticulous approach permits the precise management of pore size and density, assuring compatibility with specific project requirements. The final product showcases a translucent, microporous surface that is exceptionally smooth and flat, making it ideal for capturing particles larger than the pore size—a vital aspect when collecting samples for blood tests and general-purpose filtration.

Key Characteristics:

• Absolute Pore Size and Density: Enables effective flow control for liquids, ensuring 100% retention of cells larger than the specified pore size.
• Smooth Glass-Like Surface: Its planar surface is optimal for particle identification and microscopy analysis.
• Superior Strength: Exhibiting a tensile strength of 207 bar (> 3000 psi), the membrane maintains its pore integrity without stretching.
• Low Extractables: This attribute guarantees that tests yield clean results, fostering consistent outcomes across applications.
• Negligible Absorption/Adsorption: This quality maximizes the recovery of critical solutions, ensuring high efficiency in operations.

Applications:

• Flow control of reagents through assays.
• General filtration tasks.
• Specific filtration and prefiltration processes.
• Efficient removal of red blood cells from plasma.
