Advantages

Porex’s material technology offers design advantages and additional material capabilities including custom surface chemistry derivations, polarization, specific protein binding and modification of surface particles to achieve specific functionalized properties. Using various material and pore size combinations, Porex's technology provides solutions that minimize airflow resistance and maximize water intrusion pressure. Incorporating this material technology into a molded three-dimensional shape offers enhanced design flexibility. One of the key advantages to Porex's manufacturing process involves the production of an oriented fiber part composed of a variety of fiber constituents. Additive or functional fibers are often times incorporated into the fiber matrix to enhance functional performance. Functional fibers can be added to improve: linear or volumetric wick rates, tensile or radial part strength, and/or pore size/pore volume ratios.

Advantages

The technical information presented is intended as reference information only and in no way should be regarded as a limit or a constraint to our development capability. The material conditioning processes utilized by Porex to ready a polymer for use in the manufacturing process is considered proprietary. Therefore, Porex does not sell raw material for use in any external operation.
