Functionalization Change's Everything
The ability to add functionalized particles to our nanofiber process means disruption for your industry
Inclusion of Functionalized Particles
-
Verdex technology allows particles to be combined during spinning
-
Particles are incorporated uniformly and embedded into the matrix such that virtually none of the particles are lost to the environment
Molecular separation (capture) can be accomplished by use of:
-
Activated Carbon – Cabin Air, Drinking Water
-
Citric Acid – Cleating Agents for capturing metal ions
-
Zeolite – Ammonium, Potassium, Calcium and Manganese capture
-
Ion Exchange (e.g. polystyrene sulfonate) Water softening and Purification, Typically used with Desalination
Antimicrobials/ Antifungal
-
Silver Compounds
-
Quaternary Silanes
-
Copper Compounds
Products Currently Being Developed Using Functionalized Nanofibers
-
High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters based on homogeneous coform layer of dual distribution fibers.
-
High purity molecular filters using ultrafine activated carbon particles immobilized in 3D matrix of nanofibers
-
Ultrathin fluid absorbent materials using Super Absorbent Particles within hydrophilic coated polymeric nanofibers
