Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) folding filter cartridges have various significant characteristics in the filtration field, which make them widely used in many industries. The following are the main characteristics of PTFE folding filter cartridges:


1. Excellent chemical stability


PTFE material has excellent chemical stability and can withstand a wide range of chemicals, including strong acids, strong bases, and various solvents. This characteristic makes PTFE folding filter particularly suitable for filtration applications involving highly corrosive media, such as chemical, pharmaceutical and other fields.


2. High temperature tolerance


PTFE material has excellent high-temperature stability and can maintain good performance in high-temperature environments. PTFE folding filter cartridges can typically withstand temperatures up to 200 ° C to 260 ° C (specific temperature range may vary depending on different products), making them suitable for high-temperature filtration needs, such as hot fluid filtration in industries such as chemical, petroleum, and metallurgy.


3. Extremely low friction coefficient


PTFE has a very low coefficient of friction, which makes the flow of liquid on the surface of the filter element smoother, reduces resistance and pressure drop, thereby improving filtration efficiency and processing capacity.


4. Excellent surface wettability


Although PTFE surface itself is hydrophobic, it can have good wettability after special treatment. This characteristic can prevent particles and pollutants from adhering to the surface of the filter element, reduce clogging and pollution, and extend the service life of the filter element.


5. Efficient particle retention


The PTFE folding filter has a microporous structure, which can effectively trap small particles and suspended solids. Its filtration accuracy usually ranges from 0.1 microns to 5 microns, and can even reach higher accuracy to meet the needs of different liquid filtration.


6. Easy to clean and reuse


Due to the non viscous properties of PTFE material, PTFE folding filter cartridges are easy to clean and reuse. This can not only improve the service life of the filter element, but also reduce the cost of use and improve economy.


7. High strength and corrosion resistance


PTFE folding filter element has good strength and corrosion resistance, and can maintain structural stability and filtration effect in harsh environments. Its high-strength characteristics also ensure the stability and durability of the filter element during use.


8. Diversified interface forms


PTFE folding filter cartridges can be matched with welded interfaces according to different working environments and requirements. The common interface forms mainly include standard M20 interface, 222 interface, and 226 interface, which can be replaced with other types of filters, providing more choices and flexibility.


9. Wide range of application areas


PTFE folding filter cartridges are widely used in liquid filtration and gas filtration in various fields such as chemical, electronic, pharmaceutical, food and beverage. Especially in filtration scenarios with strict requirements for chemicals, high-temperature media, and corrosive liquids, PTFE folding filter cartridges are indispensable and important equipment.


Polytetrafluoroethylene folding filter cartridges play an important role in multiple industries due to their excellent chemical stability, high temperature resistance, low friction coefficient, excellent surface wettability, efficient particle retention ability, easy cleaning and reuse, high strength, and corrosion resistance.
