Whatman™ Quartz Filters QM-A

Filters for use in US EPA PM10 Ambient Air Monitoring
High-purity quartz (SiO2) microfiber filters are used for air sampling in acidic gases,
stacks, flues and aerosols, particularly at high temperatures up to 500° C and in PM-10
testing. Because of the low level of alkaline earth metals, ‘artifact’ products of sulfates
and nitrates (from SO2 and NO2) are virtually eliminated. QM-A, sequentially numbered
according to EPA standards, is suitable for most applications.
