Hydrophobic

• Air Monitoring - Ensures precise capture of airborne particulates for environmental analysis in challenging atmospheric monitoring conditions
• Moisture Barrier - Protects sensitive electronic sensors and instruments from aqueous aerosols while allowing gases to pass freely
• Venting Applications - Prevents moisture and particulate intrusion in sterile tanks and vessels, ensuring a contaminant-free storage environment
• Aggressive Solvents - Clarifies chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatics without membrane degradation, ensuring pure filtrate quality every time
• Gas Filtration - Ensures sterility in air and gas lines for fermentation tanks, preventing the introduction of airborne contaminants
• Pump Protection - Acts as a reliable hydrophobic barrier to protect vacuum pumps from corrosive moisture damage and particulate contamination
