The absorption of water by a filter paper is due to Capillary action.

  • A semi-permeable paper barrier that is placed perpendicular to a liquid or air flow is known as filter paper.
  • It's used to separate liquids or gases from fine solid particles. Filter paper is available in a variety of sizes and shapes.
  • Consider wet strength, porosity, particle retention, volumetric flow rate, compatibility, efficiency, and capacity.
  • With paper, there are two types of filtration mechanisms: volume and surface.
  • Particles are captured in the bulk of the filter paper when using volume filtration.
  • Particles on the paper's surface are captured by surface filtering.
  • Filter paper is frequently used since even a small piece may absorb a lot of liquid by capillary action.
