Abstract:
A mixed powder and a material for molding have polytetrafluoroethylene as a main component. Each includes polytetrafluoroethylene that can be fibrillated, a non-hot melt processable component that is not fibrillated, and a hot melt processable component with a melting point of lower than 320° C. that is not fibrillated. The non-hot melt processable component that is not fibrillated is contained in a range of 20 to 40% by weight of the total weight. The hot melt processable component is contained at equal to or more than 0.1% by weight but less than 20% by weight of the total weight. A drawn porous body includes a plurality of fibrils, and a plurality of knotted portions that are connected to each other by the fibrils.

A composition, a mixed powder and a material for molding have polytetrafluoroethylene as a main component. Each includes polytetrafluoroethylene that can be fibrillated, a non-hot melt processable component that is not fibrillated, and a hot melt processable component with a melting point of lower than 320° C. that is not fibrillated. The hot melt processable component is contained at equal to or more than 0.1% by weight but less than 20% by weight of a total weight. A filtering medium for an air filter includes a porous membrane made of these components, and an air permeable support. The porous membrane is manufactured, by mixing these components, extruding the mixture, rolling and drawing.
Abstract:
An embossed air filter filtration medium has at least one porous film and a plurality of air-permeable support materials supporting the at least one porous film. The least one porous film includes a fibril-formable polytetrafluoroethylene, a non-fibril-forming and non-hot-melt-processable component, and a non-fibril-forming and hot-melt-processable component having a melting point below 320° C. Surfaces of both sides of the air filter filtration medium are formed by two air-permeable support materials of the air-permeable support materials. The air filter filtration medium has a plurality of embossed projections. The embossed air filter filtration medium may be part of a filter pack, which may be part of an air filter unit. The embossed air filter filtration medium is manufactured by laminating air-permeable support materials on the at least one porous film and embossing the air filter filtration medium to form the projections.

Abstract:
A filtering medium includes first and second porous membranes mainly composed of fluororesin, and a plurality of air permeable supports to support the first and second membranes. The second membrane is disposed downstream of the first membrane. When air containing polyalphaolefin particles with a count median diameter of 0.25 μm is continuously passed through at a flow rate of 5.3 cm/sec and pressure loss is increased by 250 Pa, the first membrane has a dust retention amount larger than the second membrane. The filtering medium has a pressure loss of less than 200 Pa when air is passed through at a flow rate of 5.3 cm/sec. A collecting efficiency of NaCl particles with a particle diameter of 0.3 μm is 99.97% or more when air containing the NaCl particles is passed through at a flow rate of 5.3 cm/sec. The dust retention amount is 25 g/m2 or more.
