Product Overview
Hydrophilic asymmetric polyethersulfone membranes ensure excellent flow rates, broad chemical compatibility, low protein binding, low extractability, high mechanical strength, and temperature resistance in a variety of applications in the microelectronics industry. The PES-E is 100% integrity testable and utilizes Strainrite's double rinse process to ensure extremely low extractables. Polyethersulfone offers a broad range of chemical compatibility and temperature performance.
The PES-E meets USP Biological Reactivity Test, in vivo for class VI-121°C plastics. Sterilizable using industry recognized and accepted methods.
