This treatment applies the benefits of mechanical surface modification to the chemically resistant Polypropylene (PP) media.
Mechanical Impact
Calendering and singeing create a smoother, more stable PP surface that supports effective dust release and performs well in humid conditions.
Technical Benefit
Combining PP’s inherent resistance to acids and alkalis with a singed/calendered finish makes this media ideal for chemical processes. The mechanical treatment ensures that even in humid or chemically aggressive conditions, the media maintains its non-stick characteristics.
Key Advantages of Mechanical Surface Treatments
• Optimized Dust Cake Release: Mechanically smoothed surfaces allow for easy separation of the dust cake, reducing the energy required for pulse-jet cleaning.
• Reduced Pressure Drop: By promoting surface filtration rather than depth-loading, the media maintains its permeability for longer periods.
• Surface Integrity: These treatments create a more robust surface that is resistant to mechanical wear and abrasion during the filtration cycle.
• Customized Permeability: Through precise calendering pressure, Zariftex can calibrate the media to specific airflow requirements
