Foamex Filtration Functions

TPG Data Sheet - Filtration Functions

Filtration – Electronic air filters

Applications include-

  1. Consumer electronics - To protect against dust and vapor.
  2. Industrial electronics– To protect industrial computers, used on the manufacturing floor, from exposure to dust, dirt, oil and grease.
  3. Printers – To capture ozone and particulates released from printers.

Engineered high performance flexible polyurethane foams meet many design criteria for a variety of filtration functions. These include the removal of dust and contaminants from particles in air and gases. The benefits for our foam include relatively low air resistance and low pressure drop due to the open pore skeletal structure, large dust holding capacity due to the 97 percent void volume and design potential for easy installation due to the high tensile strength and tear resistance. Unlike ordinary urethane foams, they are reticulated or completely open pore with a three dimensional structure of skeletal strands resulting in tunable filtering properties.

Properties:

- Strong mechanical properties – tensile and tear strength
- Wide range of controlled pore sizes – very fine for small particulates
- Excellent high and low temperature characteristics
- SIF reticulated felt for excellent permeability and high physical strength and abrasion resistance.
- Coating technology to increase efficiency and dust holding capacity
