A filtration filter according to the present invention includes a surface layer composed mainly of Pd, a base material inside the surface layer and composed mainly of a PdNi alloy, and an intermediate layer between the surface layer and the base material, wherein the intermediate layer is composed mainly of a PdNi alloy in which a Pd:Ni ratio changes from a surface layer side toward a base material side.

Filtration filter

A filtration filter having a tubular shape, defining a first opening and a second opening facing the first opening, and including a filter base that defines a plurality of through holes arranged in a square grid array. The filter base includes a continuous portion having a first set of through holes of the plurality of through holes, and a non-continuous portion having a second set of through holes of the plurality of through holes. The continuous portion extends in a first direction from the first opening of the filtration filter toward the second opening and extends in a second direction along at least a first portion of a circumference of the filtration filter orthogonal to the first direction. The non-continuous portion has the second set of through holes shifted relative to the first set of through holes of the continuous portion and extends in the first direction.

A filtration filter having a filter substrate defining a plurality of through-holes extending from a first principal surface to a second principal surface opposite the first principal surface; and a pair of projections between adjacent through-holes of the plurality of through-holes, the pair of projections being on corresponding end portions on opposite sides in a width direction of the filter substrate and protruding from the first principal surface so as to define a reservoir part with the first principal surface.

A filtration device includes a first channel member, a second channel member, and a filter. The first channel member has a recess recessed inward from an outer wall surface. A groove is formed is the recess and has an opening in a recessed surface of the recess. First and second channels, each defined by a through-hole, are formed in the first channel member and are connected to the groove. A first connection part connects the groove with the first channel. The second channel member has a projection that detachably mates with the recess. The second channel member includes a discharge channel that has an opening in a projecting surface of the projection, the opening being located over the groove. The filter is disposed along the groove, and positioned at the opening of the discharge channel. When the first and second channel members are placed in a operative relationship, a third channel is formed by the projecting surface of the projection and the opening of the groove. The third channel is connected to the first channel via the first connection part. The third channel at which the filter is positioned has a smaller cross-sectional area than the first channel.

Filtration device
