PPS/PTFE Blended Coated Filter Bags Overview

PPS/PTFE blended membrane filter bags use a 50:50 blend of PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) fibers in a needle-punched felt as the base material, with PTFE fibers serving as the reinforcing base fabric. This effectively combines PPS’s resistance to acids and alkalis, hydrolysis, and abrasion with PTFE’s excellent chemical stability and oxidation resistance, while the PTFE microporous membrane coating ensures highly efficient surface filtration and easy dust removal.

This product can operate continuously at temperatures ranging from 160 to 190°C and withstand instantaneous temperatures of up to 210–220°C. It maintains stable operation in flue gas environments with oxygen content below 15–16% and exhibits excellent resistance to acid and alkali corrosion across a pH range of 1 to 14.

Its blended design addresses the shortcomings of pure PPS filter media in terms of oxidation resistance, significantly extending the service life of the filter bags under complex operating conditions. Research indicates that when used in coal-fired power plants, it can achieve ultra-low emissions (<10 mg/m³) and ensure long-term stable operation.

This product is primarily suitable for applications involving high-temperature, sulfur-containing flue gas and dust control in sectors such as coal-fired boilers, waste incineration, biomass power generation, metallurgy, chemical processing, and cement production, where there is a risk of oxidative corrosion.

Optimal Base Fabric: Pure PTFE woven base fabric + Surface Layer Fibers: PPS + PTFE fiber blend (50% PPS + 50% PTFE) + Outer Layer: Thermally laminated PTFE microporous film—specifically designed to address the pain points of pure PPS, such as susceptibility to oxidation and hydrolysis failure

Significantly improves the two major shortcomings of pure PPS

The major drawbacks of pure PPS: susceptibility to oxidation in high-oxygen environments and to hydrolysis at high temperatures and humidity. After blending with PTFE fibers: oxidation resistance improves by over 40%, significantly slowing the aging rate under conditions with high O₂ content in flue gas; resistance to hydrolysis and weak acid corrosion is comprehensively enhanced; service life in wet flue gas environments containing SO₂ and HCl is notably longer than that of ordinary pure PPS membrane-coated filters.

Balanced Chemical Stability

PPS offers excellent mechanical strength and cost-effectiveness; PTFE fibers inherently possess extremely strong corrosion resistance and low adhesion properties; capable of withstanding medium-concentration acidic flue gas and weakly alkaline dust.

Unified Advantages of PTFE Coating

Surface filtration achieves a dust removal efficiency of ≥99.99% for particles ≥0.3 μm, with stable ultra-low emissions of ≤5 mg/Nm³; dust remains only on the outer surface of the membrane, ensuring thorough pulse cleaning, long-term stable pressure drop, and reduced risk of dust embedding or bag clogging.

Improved Dust Release Properties

The combination of PTFE fibers and a surface coating provides dual low surface energy, making it less prone to caking and bag clogging caused by sticky dust and ammonium salt dust compared to pure PPS-coated filter media.

Cost-Effective Compromise Solution

Priced higher than pure PPS-coated filter media but significantly lower than all-PTFE filter media; suitable for projects with limited budgets but highly corrosive operating conditions where pure PPS filter media would have an insufficient service life.
