Glass Capillary Arrays (GCAs) consist of millions of precision glass capillary tubes fused together to produce a uniform and mechanically rigid structure
Glass Capillary Arrays (GCAs) consist of millions of precision glass capillary tubes fused together to produce a uniform and mechanically rigid structure. They can be supplied as circular or square thin plates and offer sieve-like filtration with a positive particle size cut-off. Additionally, GCAs are strong, self-supporting devices with exceptional thermal and chemical stability. They can be manufactured to withstand temperatures greater than 500°C for applications in severe environments.

Features include:

  • Precision pore size for filtration, laminar flow or collimation
  • High heat tolerance
  • Precision pore diameter
  • Mechanical strength
  • Optical quality finishes
  • Custom shapes and materials
  • Applications support
