Abstract:
A multilayer filter stack is disclosed. The multilayer filter stack includes a first filter layer defining a first side and an opposed second side and a second filter layer defining a first side and an opposed second side. The second filter layer is disposed adjacent the first filter layer. A connector releasably secures the first filter layer to the multilayer filter stack and the first filter layer is adapted to be removable from the multilayer filter stack.
Abstract:
Filter assemblies are described. In particular, a filter securement assembly for receiving and retaining a filter media in an exhaust hood is disclosed, the filter securement assembly being releasably securable to the exhaust hood, includes a filter frame, a cover and a face forming a portion of the cover, the face defining a plurality of apertures therethrough, the apertures forming at least 50% of a face surface area.
Abstract:
Filtration systems are described. In particular, a filtration system for filtering airborne particles includes an accumulation layer defining an intake surface and an exhaust surface, the accumulation layer defining an acute angle with a gravitational direction. The filtration system also includes a plurality of linear conduits included in the accumulation layer, the linear conduits being disposed in parallel with one another.
Abstract:
Filter assemblies are described. In particular, filter assemblies that include a filter frame, a fire resistant filter media, and a metallic layer disposed on and covering a major surface of the filter frame are described. The filter frame is rigid and includes at least one of a polymeric material, wood, or a wood pulp material. Filter assemblies described include flammable or meltable materials yet may retain structural integrity after being exposed to flame.
Abstract:
A filtration system for filtering airborne particles is disclosed. The filtration system includes an exhaust hood defining an exhaust hood intake. A filter media is disposed proximate the exhaust hood, and the filter media defines a filter media intake side and an opposed filter media exhaust side. A securement system is adapted to releasably secure the filter media to the exhaust hood, and the securement system includes one or more securement elements.
Abstract:
Various embodiments disclosed relate to a fire-resistant filter and methods of making and using the same. A filter includes a fibrous web or sheet comprising fire-resistant fibers, the fire-resistant fibers comprising oxidized polyacrylonitrile (OPAN), flame-retardant (FR) rayon, or a combination thereof.
Abstract:
Baffles are described. In particular, a baffle includes an intake side and an exhaust side, the exhaust side defining an opposed side of the baffle from the intake side and a first row having at least two columns forming a channel therebetween and a second row having at least two columns forming a second channel therebetween. The baffle also includes at least one column of the first row having a first layer and a second layer, the first layer including a fire-resistant material.
Abstract:
In one example, a scouring article comprises: a backing layer having opposed first and second major surfaces; and a visually discernable functional material provided on at least one of the first and second major surfaces; wherein the functional material comprises a resin, and further wherein the functional material is configured to communicate information to a user of the scouring article regarding an intended end-use application of the scouring article. In another example, an abrasive article comprises: a pad having a scrubbing surface; and a plurality of shaped abrasive structures disposed on the scrubbing surface; wherein the plurality of shaped abrasive structures are arranged to provide an indication regarding a characteristic of the abrasive structures.
Abstract:
Filter media are described. In particular, a filter media includes an intake side, an exhaust side, and a plurality of fibers distributed throughout the filter media. The fibers have a plurality of deniers, and fibers disposed proximate the intake side have a first denier and fibers disposed proximate the exhaust side have a second denier. The first denier is larger than the second denier.
Abstract:
Filter assemblies are described. In particular, a filter securement assembly for receiving and retaining a filter media in an exhaust hood includes a main panel defining a first end and an opposed second end, a first retainment surface adjacent the first end of the main panel, a first retainment lip adjacent the first retainment surface, a second retainment surface adjacent the second end of the main panel and a second retainment lip adjacent the second retainment surface.
