General Information:
FPM™ Porous PTFE Membranes for Contacting & Separation

Markel FPM™ (Fluoropolymer Permeable Membrane) Porous Fiber Solutions are a family of PTFE based products that can be used in a wide variety of contacting and separation applications. The unique properties of PTFE, including outstanding purity and chemical resistance make it ideally suited for the most aggressive chemical and process environments.

FPM™ Porous Fiber Solutions can be supplied in hollow fiber and tube form. Mean pore size, pore size distribution, and the fiber wall thickness may be independently controlled to best balance flux rates while maintaining open flow paths through the membrane wall.
