Polyester needle felt
Polyester needle felt is the most versatile, most cost effective and most widely used filter medium for dust collection. It is strong, abrasion resistant, can work up to 150°C and has good resistance to common acids, solvents and oxidising agents.
Disadvantages
The only weakness of polyester is a tendency to hydrolyse at elevated temperature which means that moisture can break down the fibres and cause them to revert to their basic constituents. This results in powdering of the fibres and a serious loss of strength.
Application
Because of its favourable price and quality , polyester is the most common filter media.
