Manufacturing

W L Gore & Associates (Gore) has added hydrophilic PTFE filters to its expanding line of cartridge filters for bulk high-purity chemicals used in microelectronics manufacturing, including LCD, semiconductor, hard disk drive and photovoltaic.

The new filters feature Gore’s proprietary high-flow hydrophilic PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) filtration media, which does not require IPA (isopropyl alcohol) pre-wetting and is said to eliminate de-wetting issues in most applications.

They are suitable for the filtration of aqueous and high surface tension liquids, especially where outgassing or bubbles are a concern. Applications include high-throughput filling, packaging and recirculation systems.
