Hyper-Sintered HST ePTFE Membrane and Tubing
Phillips Scientific Inc., a manufacturer of ePTFE Products located in Rock Hill, SC introduces Hyper-SinteredTM HSTTM ePTFE Membrane & ePTFE Tubing made using proprietary and Patent Pending methods.
The 1000X SEM of the HSTTM ePTFE Membrane surface reveals its unique structure. The uniformly distributed, high density layer on the membrane surface interconnects like a jig-saw puzzle with missing pieces to improve the membrane strength, lower the coefficient of friction, and provide bonding sites for better lamination to polymer non-wovens or film.
HSTTM ePTFE Membrane offers proven and significant advantages over previous ePTFE membranes including:
Higher Tensile Strength
Lower Coefficient of Friction
Higher Light Transmittance
Better Bonding & Lamination to Other Polymers
Tighter Pore Size
Good Flow Properties
HSTTM ePTFE Tubing offers:
Higher Tensile Strength and Pressure Range
Lower Coefficient of Friction
Virtually Seamless Wall
Ultra-Thin Wall
