Extractables

Request Information

Extractables are contaminants present in the final filtrate that originate in the filter or device.
Extractables from filters can be of three types:
  • From the shedding of filter materials, such as polymer particles from membranes or fibers from nonwovens
  • Residual chemicals carried over from the manufacturing process
  • Secondary chemistries washed off the filter
