General description

Celite® 545 is a flux calcined diatomaceous earth with medium permeability applicable as filter aid for rapid filtration in aqueous solution. It is also suitable for highly viscous liquids such as casein, pectin, adhesives, greases, waxes and tars, syrups and synthetic resins.

Application

Celite® 545 can be used as a clarifying agent to break or mitigate colloids in the turbid solution. It is also used as a short filtration pad to remove unreacted inorganic salts present in the reaction mixture before the chromatographic separation of dissolved compounds.
