Mixed Cellulose Ester Membrane (MCE Membrane) Description
Mixed Cellulose Ester Membrane (MCE Membrane) is a mixture of nitrocellulose and cellulose acetate. The flatness and uniformity of the film have been further improved, with better performance. MCE membranes are biologically inactive, produced, and tested under strictly controlled conditions, and are one of the most widely used membranes in analytical and research applications. It can be used for clarification and filtration of aqueous solutions, particle removal and analysis, and monitoring and testing of air quality. With high pore diameter accuracy, strength and toughness, it will not break, tear or bend even when handled with gloves or with tools such as tweezers. MCE membrane has good temperature stability, and the entire filter membrane can be sterilized at high temperatures while ensuring its integrity. And in this process, it maintains good anti-shrinkage performance to avoid tearing of the membrane, the reduction of the flow rate, and the reduction of the entire filtration volume in the filter. For air monitoring applications, membranes can be dissolved using standard digestion procedures. The membrane clears completely and has low artifact and thus minimal interference in fiber counts, and a 0.8 μm MCE membrane is generally chosen.
