Abstract: The invention relates to a filter material comprising a carrier material that is impregnated on one side with a thermally pre-crosslinked binder system (VB) and on the other side with a thermally crosslinkable but un-crosslinked binder system (UB). The filter material is characterised by improved deformability and a very good level of heat sealability, particularly using ultrasound, and a low pressure differential particularly when filtering high-viscosity liquids.

Abstract: A filter material for isolating liquids from fluid streams comprises a wetlaid or drylaid non-woven or woven, or an open-cell foam. The two sides of the filter material are impregnated with two different binders in such a way that one side of the filter material has a higher surface energy and thus a shorter drop absorption time than the opposing side.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filter material in particular for filtering liquids. The filter material is impregnated with a binder on only one side such that the opposite side is free of the binder and the content of the dried binder is 0.5 to 50 wt. % of the total weight of the filter material. Using the filter material according to the invention, a high degree of separation is achieved while maintaining a long service life. The invention further relates to a filter element which comprises the filter material according to the invention. Further aspects of the invention relate to the use of the filter material according to the invention in order to filter liquids and to a method for separating two non-mixable liquids, said liquids being conducted through the filter material according to the invention.
