Regenerated Cellulose (RC) Membranes

Sterlitech Regenerated Cellulose (RC) membranes are optimal for filtering organic and aqueous solutions. These solvent-resistant membranes are standard in the processes of de-gassing and ultracleaning solvents, and for mobile phases of HPLC.
Regenerated Cellulose Product Characteristics:
- Hydrophilic membrane
- Can be sterilized by all methods
What is the difference between Cellulose Acetate and Regenerated Cellulose?
- Cellulose Acetate is a specific type of polymer used for low protein binding applications.
- Regenerated Cellulose is a pure cellulose which has been treated in a chemical bath for better chemical resistance. Regenerated Cellulose has a lower molecular weight and the structure is not as orderly as it is for other cellulose.
