Filters utilise hydrophilic PTFE filtration media
WL Gore and Associates
Hydrophilic PTFE filtration media
Gore and Associates has added hydrophilic PTFE filters to its line of cartridge filters for bulk high-purity chemicals used in microelectronics manufacturing, including LCDs and semiconductors.
Gore filters for high-purity chemical processors can be used as drop-in replacements for existing filters to achieve significant flow improvements while maintaining or increasing particle retention.
This increased performance can provide a retention upgrade while maintaining system flow, reducing processing time or decreasing the number of filters required for a lower total cost of ownership.
The new filters incorporate Gore's high-flow hydrophilic PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) filtration media, which does not require IPA (isopropyl alcohol) pre-wetting and eliminates de-wetting issues in most applications.
They are well suited to filtration of aqueous and high-surface-tension liquids, especially where outgassing or bubbles are a concern.
Applications include high-throughput filling, packaging and recirculation systems.
