Super-Dura Hydrophilic PTFE Membrane

Hall Pyke‘s Super-Dura PTFE Membrane Filter Cartridges are designed for the majority of pharmaceutical liquids, but especially for solvent-containing liquids and ophthalmic solutions. These filters are composed of a hydrophilic PTFE sterile membrane which provides excellent chemical and heat tolerance.

Features and Benefits

  • Hydrophilic PTFE sterile membrane which requires no pre-wetting
  • Excellent chemical compatibility especially for solvent-containing liquids
  • Minimal preservative binding in ophthalmic solutions
  • Clean PTFE sterile membrane with very low gravimetric extractable

Typical Application

  • Antibiotics
  • LVP & SVP
  • Large Batch Solutions
  • Ophthalmic Solutions
  • Disinfectants and Sanitising Agents
