I.W.Tremont Grade VSS®, Binderless Glass Microfiber, high heat up to 550 C° for volatile suspended solids, 100/pk
Buy I.W.Tremont Products from MSE Supplies at the best value.
LabExact® Grade VSS is a binder free material manufactured using a proprietary glass chemistry which permits usage in high heat applications beyond typical borosilicate glass blends. Ideally suited for determination of "Fixed & Volatile Solids Ignited at 550°C Method 2540E. Low fiber shedding improves quality assurance of test results and low percentage of weight loss when used in gravimetric tests. Particle retention of 1.50um and high loading capacity is an attribute of the high surface area and complex pore structure. Material is also compliant with the requirements of standard methods 2540C & 2540D and EPA Method 160.2 for establishing water quality in suspended solids content. Also widely used in air pollution monitoring, high temperature flue gas and filtration of high temperature solvents. “The residue of TSS, TDS after heating to dryness for a defined amount of time and at a defined temperature is defined as Fixed solids. Volatile solids are those solids lost on ignition (heating to 550 degrees C.) They are useful to the treatment plant operator because they give a rough approximation of the amount of organic matter present in the solid fraction of wastewater, activated sludge and industrial wastes.”
Features
- Fastest flow rate
- High load capacity
- Retention of particles to sub-micron size
- Broad temperature range
- Use in liquid and gaseous filtration
- Inert fiber composition
- Free of binders or additives
Application Reference Grade VSS®
A binder free material manufactured using a proprietary glass chemistry which permits usage in high heat applications beyond typical borosilicate glass blends. Ideally suited for determination of “Fixed & Volatile Solids Ignited at 550ºC” Method 2540E. Low fiber shedding improves quality assurance of test results and low percentage of weight loss when used in gravimetric tests. High loading capacity is an attribute of the high surface area and complex pore structure. Material is also compliant with the requirements of standard methods 2540C & 2540D and EPA Method 160.2 for establishing water quality in suspended solids content.
Total Suspended Solids (TSS) are defined as those which are retained by a “glass-fiber filter disk without organic binder”. Also widely used in air pollution monitoring, high temperature flue gas and filtration of high temperature solvents.
