Sintered glass is a glass mesh used for filtration. It can be used instead of filter paper, and in fact is preferable to filter paper. Its other advantage is that it is permanent so you can get various different pieces of glassware with sintered glass in it e.g. an enclosed filter suitable for filtration under nitrogen.
As for the porosity.... Porosity of sintered glass is labelled by integers from 0-5 (viz. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) where 0 has a pore size of 160-250 micrometres and is considered course filtration, that is fluid will pass through it quickly and some finer solids will pass through. Whereas, porosity 5 has a pore size of 4-10 micrometers so even ultrafine solids will not pass through and liquids will drop through.
I hope this is clear, makes sense and is helpful.

What sintered glass crucible made of?
Sintered glass crucible is a glass mesh used for filteration. It can be used instead of filter paper, and in fact it is preferrable to filter paper. Sintered glass crucible must be cleaned then dried to constant weig befoe it can be used to filter out precipitates such as silver chloride.
Is a glass an example of porosity?
yes.... it is an answer for porosity....
How do you prepare baljet reagent?
Baljet reagent freshly prepared (95 ml 1% picric acid + 5 ml 10% NaOH) mixed immediately before use and filtered through a sintered glass funnel.
What is the porosity of toilet paper?

Is porosity a chemical property or physical?
physical! :)

What is porosity and pore size in glass?
No, glass is not porous
What is a sintered funnel?
A sinterd funnel is simply a funnel with a built in filter. The filter is sintered, I think that this means that small particles are compressed together (and heated ?) to form a single piece of material with many small holes. The sintered funnels I use are made of glass, a link to some images is below (not mine). http://curlyarrow.blogspot.com/2008/01/how-to-clean-your-sintered-funnel.html I have also used sintered polyethylene and sintered stainless steel for filtering.
Examples of porosity?
Because of the gravity of the earth....
Why is a sintered glass funnel should be handled with tongs?
To avoid contamination, especially in chemical analysis.
What is low porosity and high porosity?
big particles=low porosity small particles=high porosity
What is the tagalog meaning of porosity?
Ang kahulugan ng "porosity" sa Tagalog ay "papak" o "bukas-bukas." Ito ay tumutukoy sa dami o kahabaan ng mga butas o espasyo na makikita sa isang bagay tulad ng lupa o kahoy.
What does porosity mean in welding?
Porosity is the formation of bubbles in the weld.
How do you calculate porosity of clay bricks?

How does sorting of rock particles affect porosity of rocks?
poorly sorted = low porosity well sorted = high porosity
