PLEATED CARTRIDGE TECHNICAL TOOL
Pleated Cartridge Membrane Material Selector
Screen PTFE, PVDF, PES, Nylon, PP, and glass fiber by media phase, process priority, wetting requirement, and filtration stage.
INTERACTIVE MEMBRANE PRE-SELECTION
Filter membrane materials by process requirements
Choose the phase, process priority, wetting requirement, and filtration stage. The tool shows exact and conditional matches; final selection still requires compatibility and sample validation.
SELECT APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS
| Membrane material | Wettability | Typical applications | Compatibility note | Match | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PES (Polyethersulfone) | hydrophilic | Aqueous bioprocess, pharmaceutical, and fine liquid filtration | Confirm against the actual medium and concentration | — | View product |
| PTFE (Hydrophobic) | hydrophobic | Air, gas, venting, and compatible non-aqueous media | High; compatibility confirmation still required | — | View product |
| PTFE (Hydrophilic) | hydrophilic | Aggressive aqueous chemicals, acids, bases, and compatible solvents | High; verify temperature, concentration, and seals | — | View product |
| PVDF (Hydrophobic) | hydrophobic | Compatible gases, solvents, and chemical process streams | Very good within the verified compatibility range | — | View product |
| PVDF (Hydrophilic) | hydrophilic | Aqueous bioprocess, protein-containing, and chemical liquids | Very good; verify adsorption and extractables requirements | — | View product |
| Nylon (Polyamide) | hydrophilic | General aqueous, alcohol-based, food, beverage, and fine chemical liquids | Good for selected media; acids require special review | — | View product |
| PP (Polypropylene) | hydrophobic | General industrial liquids, water treatment, and economical clarification | Broad general compatibility; verify oxidizers and temperature | — | View product |
| Glass Fiber (GF) | hydrophilic | High-viscosity liquids, colloids, and high-load prefiltration | Medium-dependent; hydrofluoric acid is unsuitable | — | View product |
