WHATMAN QM-A Quartz Microfiber Filters

CYTIVA
GE’s high-purity quartz microfiber filters are used in many air sampling filter applications, including sampling of acidic gases, stacks, flues, and aerosols. Filters are suitable for PM-10 sampling and analysis. High-purity quartz (SiO2) microfiber filters are used for air sampling in acidic gases, stacks, flues, and aerosols, particularly at high temperatures up to 800°C and in PM2.5/PM10 and trace element analysis. Due to the low level of alkaline earth metals, artifact products of sulfates and nitrates (from SO2 and NO2) are virtually eliminated. QM-A, sequentially numbered according to EPA standards, is suitable for most applications.
