  • Product Description
  • Product Introduction

    The hydrophobic and oleophobic membrane provided by BlueTech Filtration boasts strong water- and oil-repellent properties. This membrane effectively prevents the penetration of low-surface-tension contaminants, including detergents, cleaning agents, oils, and chemicals.

    The oil-repellency test is conducted according to AATCC Standard 118-1989, established by the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists. The test procedure involves dropping a liquid with a known surface tension onto the surface of the membrane material and observing the wetting behavior. This process represents the liquid's penetration into the membrane structure. The oil-repellency rating is defined as the minimum surface tension of a liquid that fails to wet the membrane material.

    Product Advantages

    • Oil-release rating: Level 8 (AATCC118)
    • High flow rate & non-volatile
    • High chemical resistance and high-temperature resistance.
    • Strong mechanical performance

Recommended Products

PTFE hydrophilic membrane

PTFE hydrophilic filter membranes are modified from hydrophobic PTFE and include: PTFE hydrophilic smooth membranes and PTFE hydrophilic composite membranes. PTFE hydrophilic smooth membranes possess the following characteristics: excellent hydrophilicity, high hydrophilic stability, and good chemical resistance and temperature tolerance. They can be widely used for filtering various liquids, including corrosive liquids such as strong acids and strong bases.

PTFE hydrophobic membrane

PTFE hydrophobic filter membranes are made from naturally hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene polymer and include: PTFE hydrophobic smooth membranes and PTFE hydrophobic composite membranes.

PVDF hydrophilic membrane

Hydrophilic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes are hydrophilically modified based on hydrophobic PVDF membranes, reducing the surface contact angle and enhancing hydrophilicity. Hydrophilic PVDF membranes exhibit extremely low protein adsorption while maintaining exceptionally high water flux and broad chemical compatibility. Consequently, PVDF membranes are frequently used for filtering culture media and other protein solutions. We offer filter membranes with pore sizes ranging from 3 μm to 0.1 μm.
