Publication number: 20120048797Abstract: The fiber webs described herein may be incorporated into filter media and filter elements. The webs may exhibit a high permeability and stiffness, at a low thickness. The stiffness can be sufficient for the webs to be pleated to include sharp, well-defined peaks which can be maintained in a stable configuration during use.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2011Publication date: March 1, 2012Applicant: Hollingsworth & Vose CompanyInventors: Bruce Smith, Sudhakar Jaganathan

Publication number: 20120152824Abstract: Fine fiber products including fiber webs, as well as related assemblies, systems and methods, are described. In some embodiments, fiber webs described herein may include fine fibers and relatively low amounts of degraded polymer formed during a fiber extrusion process. The fiber webs may be used for filter media applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2010Publication date: June 21, 2012Applicant: Hollingsworth & Vose CompanyInventors: Stephen T. Cox, William S. Freeman

Publication number: 20150004385Abstract: The fiber webs described herein may be incorporated into filter media and filter elements. The fiber webs may exhibit a high dust holding capacity. The fiber webs may also exhibit a low thickness. The fiber webs may be sufficiently flexible and/or deformable so that they may be processed to include a series of waves (also known as flutes) that extend along the cross-machine direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2014Publication date: January 1, 2015Applicant: Hollingsworth & Vose CompanyInventors: James M. Witsch, Douglas M. Guimond

Patent number: 6554881Abstract: A filter media having a synthetic microfiber polymer fine fiber web wherein the diameter of the fibers is between about 0.8 to about 1.5 microns. The filter media is acceptable for use in ASHRAE applications. Constructions with a low DP backing, support or prefilter layers of coarse fiber provide large area filter webs of high efficiency and a stale and high threshold value of alpha above eleven.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2000Date of Patent: April 29, 2003Assignee: Hollingsworth & Vose CompanyInventor: David Thomas Healey

Publication number: 20120107588Abstract: Articles such as filter media, which include dendrimers and/or other components, are provided. The filter media may further include a water repellant (e.g., a fluorinated species) to impart desirable properties to the media such as high water repellency. The filter media may also have a high efficiency as a function of pressure drop (i.e., high gamma values). In some embodiments, the filter media includes a fiber web which may be formed of various components such as glass fibers. The fiber web can also include additional components such as synthetic fibers, binder components, as well as other additives. The media may be incorporated into a variety of filter element products.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2011Publication date: May 3, 2012Applicant: Hollingsworth & Vose CompanyInventors: David F. Sealey, Stuart Williams
