Polyimide Filter Bag – Specialized Solution for High-Temperature Dust Filtration

Polyimide (PI) filter bags are made from polyimide fibers through a needle-punching process. They can operate stably at 260 °C, with peak temperatures up to 280 °C. With exceptional heat resistance, chemical stability, and structural durability, they are widely used for flue gas filtration in waste incineration, cement kilns, high-temperature coal mills, steel, and metallurgy industries.

Features
  • High temperature resistance. It Operates continuously at 260 °C, with peak temperatures up to 280 °C.
  • Oxidation resistance. It maintains structural stability in oxygen-containing environments, suitable for high-temperature oxidation conditions.
  • Acid and alkali resistance. It exhibits excellent resistance to various acidic and alkaline gases, suitable for complex chemical environments.
  • High strength. It offers high tensile strength, suitable for frequent reverse air cleaning conditions; however, hydrolysis resistance is moderate to low.
Structure

The dust collector filter bag primarily consists of a bag opening, bag body, and bag bottom. The bag body is made from fibers through a needle-punch nonwoven process, forming a three-layer structure: fiber layer – base fabric – fiber layer.

Principle

When dust-laden airflow passes through the filter bag, dust is retained on the outer surface of the filter bag (surface filtration) or within the filter material (depth filtration), while clean air passes through the medium and is discharged through the outlet.
