Description
Filter paper 593 is a qualitative, medium-fast laboratory filter paper supplied as a pre-folded (pleated) disc with a diameter of 125 mm and a basis weight of 84 g/m². Grade 593 is intended for routine qualitative filtration where a balanced, medium filtration speed supports clarification of solutions and separation of precipitates in everyday analytical work. The folded format increases the effective filtration surface and sits readily in standard funnels, helping streamline sample preparation in teaching, quality-control, and research laboratories. With a basis weight of 84 g/m², the paper combines practical handling strength with the retention behaviour expected from a medium-fast qualitative grade. These 125 mm folded filters from manufacturer Hahnemühle are packed as 100 pieces per unit, which suits continuous bench use without frequent reordering. The non-sterile paper is suited to general chemical and life-science workflows that do not require sterile media. Diameter, basis weight, and grade designation together define a clear specification for laboratories standardising on qualitative folded filters for medium-speed separations.

Questions about Filter paper 593, qualitative ,medium fast, 84 g/sqm ,Folded filter, 125 mm
What is this article?
Filter paper 593, qualitative ,medium fast, 84 g/sqm ,Folded filter, 125 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hahnemühle for laboratory use. It sits in Filter paper, inside Filtration, in Lab consumables.
Filter paper is a cellulose sheet of a stated retention and speed. Qualitative paper clarifies. Quantitative, ashless paper is for a precipitate that will be weighed or ashed, because the paper itself leaves almost no ash. The diameter has to match the funnel.
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.
