Ahlstrom's qualitative grades of filter paper are, by definition, recommended for use in analytical methods, which determine or identify particulate constituents of a mixture irrespective of the amount present. Qualitative filter papers are often used in routine separation work that still requires high purity and consistent performance. Ahlstrom offers a complete range of low ash filter papers for general laboratory work that provides you with the correct combination of particle retention, filtration speed, loading capacity and wet-strength. All our qualitative grades consist of 95% super refined a-cellulose and linter fibers. Key Features Quantitative analysis Low ash content 0.06% Untreated High wet-strength Consistent performance Wet-strengthened grades available Custom cut Bulk packaging Ahlstrom 601: 2.5m -; Medium Speed This grade covers a wide range of laboratory applications and is used for clarifying liquids and for rapid filtration of coarser precipitates such as lead sulfate, lead chromate, calcium oxalate, calcium carbonate, aluminum phosphate, barium carbonate and beryllium hydroxide. Ahlstrom 601 can be found in soil analysis, seed testing and in air pollution to collect dust-laden air and is also commonly used in the food industry to separate foodstuffs from associated liquid or extracting liquid. Environmental Laboratory Applications: ASTM E1963-09.A2 Standard Guide for Conducting Terrestrial Plant Toxicity Tests: Root Elongation Seeds are incubated under controlled conditions in petri dishes with filter paper, such as Grade 601, prior to measuring the root length to determine if a potentially toxic substance has affected the growth rate.
