Glass fiber filter media is made from 100% micro-fine borosilicate glass fibers. Glass fiber filters are used where high flow rate and micron/sub-micron filtration is required. The filter media can be used for both liquid and air filtration. In the highest purity form, HI-Q offers a binderless “AE” grade glass filter media. With its’ excellent purity, using the FPAE-XX series filter paper reduces the overall possibility of extractable organics commonly found in cellulose filter paper.

Properties of Glass Fiber Media: The borosilicate glass fibers are inert and resistant to all but strongly alkaline bases or acids such as hydrofluoric acid. The fibers are heat resistant and will only begin to soften at over 600°C.
