Specifications
1. PES membrane2. Pore Size Range 0.03 to 20.0 um
3. Max. temperature: 130 centidegree.
Introduction
PES membrane is a highly micro porous membrane composed of modified polyethersulfone that is a tough, durable, and temperature resistant aromatic polymer. It is designed to remove particulates during general filtration, and its low protein and drug binding characteristics make it ideally suited for use in life science applications.
The membrane provides high flow rate, low extractables, and greater mechanical strength than competitive membranes. It efficiently removes particulates from solutions during general filtration. Additionally, its low protein and drug binding characteristics maximize recovery of critical drugs used in I.V. therapy, chemotherapy and open-heart surgery.
