Thermo Scientific™ Quartz, Coarse Wool 9–30 µm

Thermo Scientific™ Quartz, Coarse Wool 9–30 µm is a high-purity amorphous silicon dioxide (SiO₂) fibrous material featuring white coarse fibers with diameters ranging from 9 to 30 micrometers. This quartz wool provides superior chemical inertness, thermal stability, and mechanical strength, making it suitable for high-temperature filtration, catalyst packing, insulation, and column filling applications.

Its coarser fiber structure ensures optimal air and gas flow in filtration systems and provides excellent mechanical resilience for industrial, analytical, and thermal laboratory processes.
