Retains fine crystalline ppt with slow flow rate. Suitable for Buchner filtrations, high pressure, high chemical and pH resistance.
One critical step in the manufacture of these filter papers is acid washing. All grades are double acid washed in hydrochloric then hydrofluoric acid to reduce levels of SiO₂, CaO, and Fe2O₃. Grade No.4A Hardened is further treated with nitric acid. Following the acid wash, all papers are rinsed in ultrapure water to neutralize. Ash Content: 0.01% (except No.4A 0.025%).
