Description
Phase separation paper Grade 480 is a silicone-impregnated laboratory filter medium engineered for clean liquid-liquid separations. The hydrophobic treatment retains the aqueous phase while allowing organic solvents to pass freely through the sheet. Flow stops automatically once the entire solvent fraction has drained, eliminating the need for continuous supervision. In many analytical and preparative workflows this grade replaces conventional separating funnels, reducing glassware handling and shortening procedure times. Supplied in packs of 100 pieces with a net weight of 0,047 kg, the paper is produced in Germany by manufacturer Sartorius. Its reliable solvent permeability and self-terminating flow behaviour make it especially suitable for extractions, sample clean-up and solvent-recovery steps involving immiscible liquid pairs. Laboratories benefit from simplified phase isolation, improved convenience and consistent separation performance across routine and research applications. The durable silicone impregnation maintains hydrophobicity under typical bench conditions, supporting reproducible results day after day in synthetic, analytical and quality-control environments.

Questions about Phase separator paper / Grade 480
What is this article?
Phase separator paper / Grade 480 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Filtration accessories, inside Filtration, in Lab consumables.
Filtration accessories are the holders, the gaskets, the manifolds and the flasks a membrane or a Büchner setup needs. A holder for 47 mm discs does not clamp a 25 mm disc. The gasket is what actually seals.
Filtration holds back what is larger than the pores and lets the rest through. Paper is the ordinary laboratory filter. A membrane has a stated pore size and a polymer that must survive the solvent. A syringe filter is that membrane in a housing on a syringe. Glass fibre takes a higher dirt load. Ultrafiltration holds back macromolecules and passes salts. The pore size, the chemical compatibility and the volume are the three choices. Laboratory apparatus around filtration is indexed under ISO laboratory apparatus.
