Abstract:

To study the effect of pore characteristics on filtration performance of filter bag, the maximum pore size and mean pore size of thirteen kinds of samples are determined by bubble?point method, mainly including needled filter bag, spunlace filter bag and membrane covered filter bag. In addition, the pore distribution characteristics of needled filter bag and spunlace filter bag are also analyzed by a combination of scanning electron microscope and Image-pro plus 6.0. The results show that the maximum pore size and mean pore size of needled filter bag are larger than those of the spunlace filter bag, and the pore size of the membrane covered filter bag is the lowest one. The maximum pore size and mean pore size of the internal pore throat have an effect on the air permeability, filtration efficiency and pressure drop of filter bags. Air permeability increases with the increase of pore size. The filtration efficiency increases with the decrease of pore size. Additionally, the pore distribution of spunlace filter bag is more concentrated and uniform than other kinds of filter bags, which has a certain degree of influence on the improvement of filtration efficiency of filter materials.

Key words: filter bag, pore size distribution, air permeability, fractional counting efficiency, pressure drop
