Abstract:
A cooking oil filtering apparatus has a frame and a filter supported therein. The filter is an assembly of juxtaposed layers including a filter layer formed of a uniformly porous web comprising randomly distributed, randomly interentangled, synthetic polymeric blown microfibers that are less than 10 microns in diameter and a support layer of highly porous, relatively stiff, light weight sheet material, more porous than the filter layer.
Abstract:
A nonwoven surface treating article suitable for treating surfaces which include calcium carbonate, such as marble floors, includes an open, lofty, three-dimensional nonwoven web of a plurality of thermoplastic organic fibers, a binder, and abrasive particles having an average particle diameter ranging from about 0.1 micrometer to about 30 micrometers. The abrasive articles of the invention do not rust, as do steel wool pads, and produce a high gloss, durable surface. A system for treating calcium carbonate-containing surfaces is also presented, the system including the articles and an acidic crystallization agent. Methods of treating calcium carbonate-containing surfaces with the system are also presented.
