Ceramic Filter Membrane
Ceramic membrane filters are ideal for use with extreme operating processes that require longevity, resistance to aggressive solvents, and superior pressure/temperature tolerance.
The inorganic and hydrophilic properties of these ceramic membranes provide maximum durability across a wide array of laboratory-scale microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, dead-end, and/or tangential/cross flow applications. Bescause these filters are adapted for each filtration category, they feature customized active layers based on respective molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) specifications. All of our ceramic filters feature titania (TiO2) support layers, are inert to most chemicals and solvents, have a large pH tolerance range, and exhibit remarkable performance under demanding thermal and pressure conditions.
Our ceramic membranes can withstand many repeated autoclave and/or chemical (EtO) sterilization cycles and are built for maximum operational longevity; often retaining functionality for many years beyond their organic, polymeric counterparts. Additionally, these filters also provide resistance against high backwash velocity, provide high levels of flux, and decrease fouling tendency.
