Description
Standard filter paper, 55 mm is a circular laboratory filtration medium intended for routine qualitative separation work. It has a basis weight of 73 g/m² and a medium retention grade, giving a practical balance between flow and particle hold-up for everyday bench procedures. The 55 mm diameter fits smaller funnels and limited sample volumes typical of analytical chemistry, teaching laboratories, and preparatory steps ahead of further measurement. Packaged as 100 pieces, the discs provide a convenient stock unit for continuous laboratory use. This standard grade paper from manufacturer filtraTECH is suited to clarifying liquids, collecting precipitates, and general sample clean-up where specialised membrane or hardened papers are not required. Medium porosity supports common filtration tasks across research, quality-control, and educational environments that need reliable day-to-day filter paper in a compact size. The plain circular format integrates easily into standard glassware setups and supports consistent handling during repeated filtrations without adding unnecessary complexity to the workflow.

Questions about Filter paper for general use, 55 mm
What is this article?
Filter paper for general use, 55 mm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes filtraTECH 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.
