Hollow fibre membranes – Application Note

Hollow fibre filters are used in many different filtration applications, and determining the pore sizes is of crucial importance. An extra challenge is that hollow fibre membranes are often delicate and subject to stretching, deformation, and even rupture. Therefore, selecting the proper instrument to properly measure your hollow fibre membrane is key.

The POROLUX™ and POROLIQ™ series are the reference for hollow fibre measurements. Our customers appreciate the technology and ease of use of the instruments, but above all that we can recommend the best technique to measure their hollow fibres.

Additionally, our specially designed sample holder allows for easy adaptation and testing of fibres of various internal and external diameters.
