What is Oil Filter Paper?

Oil filter paper is a specialized filtration medium engineered to remove contaminants from various oil types, including lubricating oils, hydraulic fluids, edible oils, and fuel oils. This critical component in filtration systems protects machinery and ensures operational efficiency by capturing microscopic particles that could cause engine wear or product contamination.

Professional FAQ: Oil Filter Paper Technology

What distinguishes phenolic resin-treated filter paper from standard wood pulp filter paper?

Phenolic resin treatment significantly enhances thermal stability and chemical resistance. While standard wood pulp filter paper typically withstands temperatures up to 120°C, phenolic-treated papers can operate at 150-220°C with improved structural integrity. The resin forms a cross-linked polymer matrix that reinforces cellulose fibers, resulting in a 60% increase in wet tensile strength and superior resistance to oils with high additive packages.

How does pore size distribution affect oil filter paper performance?

Pore size distribution determines the filter's beta ratio (β) and filtration efficiency. A controlled, narrow pore size distribution provides more predictable and consistent filtration performance compared to media with wide variations. For critical applications like hydraulic systems or diesel filter paper, we recommend media with a tight pore size distribution between 30-45µm for optimal protection of precision components. This ensures high particle capture efficiency (β₅≥200) while maintaining acceptable flow rates.

What standards apply to commercial fryer filter paper for food safety?

Food-grade filter papers must comply with FDA 21 CFR 176.170 for indirect food contact and EU Regulation 1935/2004. Key requirements include: - Migration limits for heavy metals below 0.1mg/dm² - No detectable migration of resin components at frying temperatures - Certified manufacturing under ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000 food safety systems Our food-grade papers undergo third-party testing for heavy metal content and migration characteristics, with full documentation available.

How do I determine the appropriate basis weight for my application?

Basis weight (g/m²) selection involves balancing flow requirements, pressure constraints, and service life expectations. Heavier media (90-110 g/m²) offer greater dirt holding capacity for extended service intervals in high-contamination environments like construction equipment. For applications requiring low pressure drop such as aviation oil systems, lower basis weight papers (70-85 g/m²) paired with optimized permeability profiles offer better flow characteristics. We recommend consulting our technical team with specific viscosity and pressure drop requirements.

What parameters affect the compatibility of oil filter paper with synthetic oils?

Synthetic oils (PAO, PAG, esters) require media with improved resistance to chemical attack. Key compatibility parameters include: - Free formaldehyde content below 0.1% (BS ISO 15320) - Extractable resin content under 0.3% (ISO 15788-1) - Accelerated aging stability (168hrs at 150°C) - Compatibility testing per DIN 51524 standards Our acrylic resin-treated papers demonstrate exceptional compatibility with Group IV and V synthetics.

How do you achieve high efficiency in diesel filter paper without compromising flow rates?

Modern diesel filter paper employs gradient density technology with multiple layers optimized for specific functions: 1. Pre-filtration layer: 60-80 µm porosity for water coalescence and large particle removal 2. Secondary layer: 25-40 µm porosity with hydrophilic/hydrophobic separation 3. Fine filtration:

What certifications should reliable oil filter paper suppliers maintain?

Reputable manufacturers should hold at minimum: - ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management Systems - ISO 14001 Environmental Management - IATF 16949 for automotive suppliers - ISO 17025 accredited testing laboratory - Material traceability per ISO 16270 Hebei Fangyu exceeds these requirements with additional accreditations including ISO 22000 for food-grade media and API/SAE testing certification.
