Applications

The applications for porous plastics are too numerous to enumerate but fall, generally into one of the following classifications:

  • Fluid Filtration (Gas/Liquid)
  • Fluid Delivery
  • Venting
  • Wicking
  • Diffusing
  • Aerosol Barrier
  • Liquid Barrier (self-sealing vent)

Porous plastics are widely suitable for application in:

  • Life Sciences/Medical Devices (Wicks, Fluid Delivery, Vents, Liquid/Aerosol Barriers)
  • Automotive (Vents, Filters, Flame Arrestors)
  • Industrial Applications (Filtering, Wicking, Support)
  • Consumer Applications (Wicks, Filters, Applicators )
