Adding an ePTFE membrane to an aramid filter bag allows the membrane to act as the filter cake. Dust stays on the surface of the membrane and does not get entrained into the fibers of the filter bag, which lengthens the life of your filter bag. It also reduces wear and tear, lower maintenance costs, and energy costs due to easy dust cake release during the cleaning cycle.

Aramid Filter Bag Construction & Treatment
Aramid filter media can be constructed and treated with various options so that they become best suited for various operating conditions, applications, and industries.
Filter Media Treatment:
The filter media is coated in a bath or spray of liquid PTFE resin. This is done to protect filter bags. The treatment improves the flex life, heat and chemical resistance, and dust release from the filter bags. This increases the service life and filtration efficiency. PTFE finish is commonly used in applications with corrosive chemical compounds, sticky dust, or high moisture contents.
This aids in filtration, adds resistance to water and oils, and improves cake release.
Helps to ground the filter bag to eliminate sparks that might cause combustion explosions.
Singeing is a finishing process where the surface of the filter media is exposed to a flame or hot gas to burn off the fine and straggly fibers in order to provide a uniform and smooth surface area, which improves dusk cake release, enhanced filtration efficiency, and better air permeability. The singeing process typically involves passing the fabric over an open flame or through a heated chamber. The heat singes off the protruding fibers without damaging the main structure of the fabric. The process parameters, such as speed and temperature, are carefully controlled to achieve the desired level of smoothness and finish.
Glazing, also known as calendering, is the high-pressure pressing of the fabric by rollers to flatten or smooth the surface. Glazing pushes the surface fibers down onto the body of the filter media to increase and uniform surface life, improve stability, reduce shrinkage, and improve dust cake release.
Reinforced Low Adhesion Treatment:
Through a post-treatment process, we apply a specialized chemical solution (developed in-house) to the filter media, which imparts enhanced water and oil repellency.

Low Emission Filter Bags
Finer fibers and optimized fiber entanglement have contributed to superior pore size and porosity of the filter media.
Energy Savings
The optimized air permeability and lower operating resistance of the filter media work together to effectively decrease energy consumption, thereby leading to significant reductions in operation costs.
Low Emission
Smaller pore size and even pore size distribution allow filter bags to intercept fine dust particles and achieve higher filtration efficiency.
Longer Lifespan
Compared to conventional material, it has superior abrasion resistance (10-30% improvement), and longer cleaning interval (5-25% improvement).
