What Is Filter Paper Used for?
Filter paper is a kind of paper that is used in many industries now. And this kind of paper also plays a role in filtering. As we know the filter paper can be divided into qualitative filter paper and quantitative filter paper. Qualitative filter paper is a filter paper commonly used in laboratories to filter mat beakers for qualitative analysis. Quantitative filter paper is also called ashless filter paper. High-quality quantitative filter paper can replace non-phosphorus filter paper.
