Pore size is selected according to the flow rate desired in the material application. Whereas most ePTFE is supplied with a pore size in the range if 5.0 to 0.1 microns, our manufacturing capabilities allow us to fabricate Poro-Tex with pore sizes down to 0.05 microns.

Poro-Tex ePTFE membranes are naturally water repellent (hydrophobic), which makes them an ideal liner for outerwear garments. Poro-Tex repels ruin and snow, yet water vapor from the body con permeate through the membrane Through special treatment, we con render Poro-Tex water absorbent (hydrophilic), creating an excellent wicking material ideal for certain medical industrial and chemical applications.

Similarly, Poro-Tex can be altered from its conventional oil absorbent (oleophilic) state into an oleophobic material. It then becomes an effective barrier for organic solutions.

All grades of Poro-Tex hove outstanding thermal and chemical resistance. With a continuous use temperature of 500ºF, Poro-Tex is well suited for harsh bio- logical industrial and chemical applications. Poro-Tex is chemically inert and con be used safely in a wide range of biological end industrial applications.
