Whatman regenerated cellulose membranes are made of pure cellulose, without any wetting agents.

Features and Benefits
  • Spontaneously wetting, very good wet strength
  • Extremely chemically resistant; suitable for aqueous and organic media
  • Hydrophilic
  • Mechanically stable
  • Can be used up to 180° C
  • Sterilizable by all methods
  • Pore sizes between 0.2 µm and 1 µm
