Whatman™ Grade 2V Qualitative Filter Paper is a pre-folded (fluted) version of Whatman Grade 2 filter paper, designed for enhanced filtration efficiency and higher loading capacity compared to standard quadrant-folded filters. Manufactured by Cytiva, this filter paper provides reliable particle retention and consistent flow performance, making it suitable for more demanding routine filtration tasks.
With a nominal particle retention of 8 µm and medium flow rate (Herzberg ~240 s), Grade 2V offers finer filtration than Grade 1V, while maintaining practical filtration speed for laboratory workflows.
Key Features
- Pre-Folded (Fluted) Design – Ready-to-use, increases effective filtration area
- Finer Retention (8 µm) – Improved particle capture compared to Grade 1V
- Medium Flow Rate (Herzberg ~240 s) – Balanced speed and retention
- Higher Loading Capacity – Handles particulate-rich samples efficiently
- Optimized for Gravity Filtration – Ideal for conical filter funnels
- Consistent Whatman Quality – Trusted performance across laboratories
Applications
- Soil and agricultural analysis (including contaminant extraction)
- General laboratory filtration requiring finer particle retention
- Seed and soil testing workflows
- Sample preparation in weakly acidic environments
- Routine qualitative analysis and sample clarification
- Environmental and food testing applications
- Educational and research laboratory use

Whatman™ Grade 2V filter paper is engineered for laboratories that require finer particle retention without sacrificing operational efficiency. Its fluted design significantly increases surface area, enabling faster filtration and higher throughput, especially in samples with higher particulate loads.
Compared to Grade 1V, Grade 2V offers enhanced retention (8 µm vs 11 µm), making it more suitable for applications requiring greater clarity and precision, particularly in soil testing, environmental analysis, and food quality workflows.
