Product Descriptions
Need top quality MCE, PVC, PTFE, silver, or polycarbonate membrane filters? Trust SKC’s experience and manufacturing expertise to offer you the best solution for sampling to meet agency methods. Our scientists work tirelessly to offer you filter technology that helps you in your mission to protect workers.
Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) Membrane Filters
SKC MCE Membrane Filters are comprised of pure, biologically inert mixtures of cellulose acetate and cellulose nitrate. These filters are the gold standard for industrial hygiene sampling applications. SKC MCE Membrane Filters are hydrophilic, autoclavable, naturally low in metal background, and compatible with dilute bases and acids and aromatic/aliphatic hydrocarbons. Look for SKC MCE Filters in BestChek® Certified Asbestos Cassettes and Nano-Neat Cassettes for chromium. SKC also makes its MCE Membrane Filters available in bulk, preloaded, matched-weight, and Solu-CAP Internal Capsule Samplers.
GLA-5000 PVC Membrane Filters
GLA-5000 PVC Membrane Filters are the No. 1 filter for sampling silica and other dusts. Low-ash GLA-5000 PVC filters are suitable for multiple NIOSH/OSHA/ASTM methods for silica, metals, hexavalent chromium, and dust (total and respirable). GLA-5000 PVC Filters provide gravimetric stability with their low tare weight and low moisture pickup. SKC makes GLA-5000 PVC Filters available in bulk, preloaded, matched-weight, and in Accu-CAP Internal Capsules.
PTFE Membrane Filters
When sampling in aggressive chemical environments, SKC PTFE Membrane Filters are the versatile choice. The unique properties of PTFE – strength, acid/base/solvent/temperature-resistance, hydrophobicity, low background, and low tare mass – make it ideal for gravimetric, chemical, and/or microscopic analysis of particulates. PTFE Filters are the optimal choice for sampling environmental PM, industrial hygiene sampling of PNAs, metalworking fluids, and more. Look for SKC PTFE Filters in bulk and preloaded cassettes.
