Nanotechnology
Fibertex has conducted extensive research into nanofibres which has resulted in
the launch of commercial products. The main benefit of Fibertex nanofibre in
filter media is increased filtration efficiency with lower pressure drop compared
to conventional filter media. The increased active surface area of the nanofibres
and the small pore size deviation ensure unparalleled filter media performance.
Why low pressure drop using nanofibres?
....Less non-permeable surface area of fibres significantly increases porocity.
