Special manufacturing processes enhance the strength of the membrane, allowing higher strength at thinner cross sections, further improving flow & retention characteristics. Processed from electronics-grade materials to exacting standards, Poreflon® PTFE microporous products offer low extractables and trace ionics, and is non-shedding. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS Liquid & gas cartridge filters Gas transfer membranes Syringe & laboratory filter devices Moisture barriers & fabrics Breather vents Flow regulators Instruments & sensors Dielectric spacers & insulators Catalyst carrier Analytical substrate Poreflon® microporous PTFE membrane is precision manufactured to exacting standards of permeability, particle cut-off, strength and cleanliness. The highest open porosities in the industry, combined with exceptional strength, offer new benchmarks in pleat efficiency and flow characteristics. FEATURES AND BENEFITS FEATURES BENEFITS Special manufacturing processes achieve extreme mechanical strength & stability Thinner membrane for higher flow rates, more pleats Higher yields, lower loss due to pleating & handling High open porosity Superior flow properties Lower pressure drop, enhanced particle retention Sharp particle size cut-off Consistent absolute particle ratings Classifying grades for CMP, pharmaceuticals & slurries Standard pore sizes from 10 microns down to 0.03 microns Broad range of product applications Reliable product availability Manufactured with E-Grade PTFE & process component Exceptional chemical & heat resistance Minimal ionic & organic extractables PRODUCT SELECTOR POREFLON® FP TYPE PORE SIZE THICKNESS (µm) BP(IPA) (kPa) FLOW RATE* (IPA) (ml/min/cm2) FP-010 0.1 60 140 5 FP-022 0.22 60 100 10 FP-045 0.45 60 70 20 FP-100 1 100 30 60 FP-500 5 100 10 200 magnified x3000 Width: 250~320mm Length: >1m General purpose single-expansion membrane Naturally hydrophobic Moderate high temperature dimensional stability Moderate strength Easy handling Available in roll or precision-cut disks * at 93.1kPa differential pressure POREFLON® WP TYPE PORE SIZE THICKNESS (µm) BP(IPA) (kPa) FLOW RATE* (IPA) (ml/min/cm2) WP-010-80 0.1 80 180 10 WP-020-80 0.2 80 120 20 WP-045-80 0.45 80 70 40 WP-100-100 1 100 40 160 WP-500-100 5 100 20 320 magnified x3000 Width: 250~320mm Length: >1m Dual-expansion membrane Naturally hydrophobic or hydrophilic High flow rate Good high temperature dimensional stability High strength Easy handling Available laminated with woven & non-woven substrates Available in precision-width rolls * at 93.1kPa differential pressure POREFLON® HP TYPE PORE SIZE THICKNESS (µm) BP(IPA) (kPa) FLOW RATE* (IPA) (ml/min/cm2) HP-005-30 0.05 30 300 2 HP-010-30 0.1 30 180 10 HP-020-30 0.2 30 130 20 HP-045-30 0.45 30 80 40 magnified x3000 Width: 250~320mm Length: >1m High performance dual-expansion membrane Naturally hydrophobic or hydrophilic Excellent high temperature dimensional stability Highest strength Easy handling Available laminated with woven & non-woven substrates Available in precision-width rolls * at 93.1kPa differential pressure General Specifications: Operating temperature range: -100 to 260oC Chemical resistance: Please contact Sumitomo Electric for chemical compatibility chart.
