DuPont introduces new filter technology

DuPont announced the introduction of its latest innovation, Hybrid Membrane Technology (HMT), a new offering for air and liquid filtration. Comprised of continuous sub-micron fibers and available on a commercial scale in the form of “membrane-like” sheet structures, DuPont HMT is made to provide optimal balance of flux/barrier performance.

HMT will be the leading technology provided in a portfolio of DuPont Nonwoven technologies that will be offered through DuPont Separations Solutions (DSS), a new business growth initiative dedicated to developing and implementing technologies for filtration.

“Growing trends ranging from stricter regulatory requirements to rising energy costs are requiring organizations in industries such as automotive, food and beverage, HVAC and life sciences to seek new separation and filtration technologies that deliver increased levels of safety and efficiency,” said Matt Trerotola, vice-president and general manager – DuPont Nonwovens.
