Choosing Between PP Spun and PP Multifilament Fabrics

A practical comparison of polypropylene spun and multifilament filter fabrics, covering chemical resistance, flow rates, and ideal application environments.

Choosing Between PP Spun and PP Multifilament Fabrics

Polypropylene (PP) is an immensely versatile material for liquid and chemical filtration given its broad pH tolerance. However, selecting between PP spun and multifilament depends purely on the application.\n\nPP spun fibers are staple fibers twisted together. While they possess good particulate retention capabilities, PP multifilaments are continuous filaments, offering significantly higher tensile strength and a smoother finish for exceptional cake release and anti-blinding properties.
