Track-Etched Membranes Repel Droplets Quickly & Resist Most Chemicals
When containers are filled with active formulations but not ventilated properly, serious consequences could occur — including bloated or collapsed containers, damaged labeling and costly cleanups from leakages. Regardless if containers are stored, transported or distributed, Oxyphen’s unique track-etched membrane solutions are welded or press-fitted into your caps & closures to reliably address this ventilation issue. These naturally smooth membrane surfaces, which are resistant against most chemicals and formulations on the market, quickly repel droplets that can clog the functional surface area and impact operation. In addition, the pore size and pore density are customized to your flow rate and water entry pressure requirements for maximum performance.
For specific chemical resistance requirements, please contact us to learn more about alternatively available membrane materials.
Oxyphen complies to UN packaging legislations for dangerous goods and consequently realized related material validations at FILTRATION GROUP.
