Yuzhimu PET+PA6 nonwoven fabrics are often used as a support layer in filters to provide structural integrity, improve pleatability, and enhance filtration performance. They can be bonded to other filter media layers, to create a robust filter structure. This support layer helps maintain the filter's shape, prevents it from flopping or tearing, and allows for efficient airflow and low pressure drop. Here's a more detailed look at how nonwovens are used as a support layer in filters:Benefits of Nonwovens as a Support Layer:
Structural Integrity:
Nonwovens, especially bicomponent spunbond nonwoven, provide good strength and dimensional stability, which is crucial for maintaining the filter's shape and structure under pressure and airflow.
Pleatability:
Some nonwovens, like Yuzhimu spunbond, are designed for easy pleating, which is important for maximizing the filter's surface area and trapping more particles.
Improved Filtration:
Yuzhimu nonwovens can act as a barrier, preventing the filter media from being blown away or distorted, and they can also help to trap larger particles that would otherwise pass through the filter.
Efficiency:
By providing structural support, Yuzhimu nonwovens can help the filter maintain its filtration efficiency over time, reducing the need for frequent replacements.
Durability:
The strength and resistance to tearing of Yuzhimu nonwovens make them a durable option for filter support, especially in applications where the filter will be subjected to wear and tear.
