Phenex-PTFE Filter
PTFE is Best Recommended for Aggressive or Pure Organic Solvent Applications
For 100% Organic Solutions
| PTFE, Teflon® (Polytetrafluoroethylene) |
| Well-suited for the clarification of non-aqueous samples |
| Hydrophobic membrane, excellent for filtration of organic-based, highly acidic or basic samples and solvents |
| A hydrophobic membrane, that can be made hydrophilic by wetting with alcohol and then flushing with deionized water |
Analysis of Aromatic Active Ingredients Contained in a Commercially Available Topical Sunscreen
Sample Preparation
- A sample of sunscreen was dissolved in 10 mL of reagent grade ethanol.
- The sample was vortexed and centrifuged (@ 4700 rpm)
- Filter it through a Phenex PTFE 0.45 µm Syringe Filter (Part No.: AF0-1102-52)
