Key Features

Strong mechanical strength
Through the needle-punching process, PPS fibers are intertwined to form a stable three-dimensional structure. This process not only helps to fix the position of the fibers and improves the mechanical strength of the felt, but also enhances its tensile and wear resistance.
High-temperature resistance
PPS needle felt has excellent high-temperature resistance and can operate stably for a long time in high-temperature environments above 160°C. Even if the instantaneous temperature reaches 180°C, it can adapt to the dust removal needs of high-temperature flue gases such as boilers and power plants.
Chemical stability
It has good corrosion resistance to acidic and alkaline gases and can maintain stable filtration performance in corrosive gas environments.
Dust removal effect
PPS needle felt has excellent filtration performance and can efficiently capture and separate solid particles in high-temperature flue gas, thereby improving the flue gas purification effect.
