PVDF Membrane

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is able to withstand solutions of pH 2-10, and it has good resistance to organic solvents, to corrosion, oxidation and heat resistance, commonly used in sterilization of biological products. 

Cobetter's polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes are made from hydrophilic PVDF membranes, which have a very low protein-binding. The advantages of protein binding, low leachable and broad chemical compatibility make it particularly suitable for use in culture media, biological products and sterile vaccines filtration. In addition, Cobetter has hydrophobic PVDF membranes are gamma irradiated
