Different Types of Paper Used in Filter Manufacturing and Their Performance Characteristics

The type of paper used in filter manufacturing plays a significant role in determining the efficiency and longevity of the filter. Different types of paper are selected based on factors such as particle retention capacity and their ability to influence air or liquid flow. Primarily, there are three types of paper used: cellulose paper, synthetic paper, and fiberglass.

Cellulose Paper
Cellulose paper is derived from natural materials and offers cost-effectiveness. It is commonly used in trucks, buses, and construction machinery. While cellulose paper has a large particle retention capacity, its durability under high temperatures and extreme pressure is limited. This type of paper is ideal for low-cost applications where short-term performance is sufficient.

Synthetic Paper
Synthetic paper, made from polymer-based fibers, offers high durability and longevity. The key advantage of synthetic paper is its resistance to extreme pressure and high temperatures. It is also capable of filtering finer particles, making it suitable for applications that require precision filtration. Core Filter often uses synthetic paper in industrial machinery and harsh operating conditions.

Fiberglass Paper
Fiberglass paper excels in filtration due to its fine structure, allowing it to capture microscopic particles. It is typically used in fuel filters and high-precision applications. Although it is more expensive, its long lifespan and high performance make fiberglass paper a preferred choice for critical filtration needs.

In conclusion, Core Filter selects the most suitable type of paper for each product based on specific filtration requirements, optimizing performance and efficiency.
