PFA/PTFE Digestion Tubes

Description

PFA and PTFE digestion tubes are laboratory supplies used for digestion of organic and inorganic samples in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and environmental industries. PFA stands for perfluoroalkoxy, while PTFE stands for polytetrafluoroethylene, both of which are types of fluoropolymers that are highly resistant to chemicals, heat, and mechanical stress.

PFA and PTFE digestion tubes have several advantages over other types of digestion tubes used for sample preparation. Firstly, they are highly inert, which minimizes the risk of contamination or leaching of the sample. Secondly, they are highly resistant to high temperatures and pressure, which makes them ideal for use in high-temperature and high-pressure digestion methods, such as microwave-assisted digestion. Lastly, PFA and PTFE digestion tubes are transparent, which allows the user to visually monitor the digestion process and detect any changes in color or consistency.

PFA and PTFE digestion tubes are available in various sizes and configurations, including screw-cap tubes, open-top tubes, and disposable tubes. They are commonly used in analytical chemistry, biochemistry, and environmental testing for the digestion of organic and inorganic samples, such as soils, sediments, food, and biological tissues.
