Ultra-Thin Wet-Laid Nonwovens

Ultra-Thin Nonwovens have been acquiring a key role in a high technology application. However, it is hard to manufacture Thin Nonwovens, especially, with the basis weight of less than 15 GSM (g/m2).
Hirose Paper manufactures Ultra-Thin Nonwovens which are much lighter than 15 GSM with good formation. The lowest basis weight which Hirose Paper has ever achieved are as shown below.

♣Applications for Ultra-Thin Nonwovens

  •  Li-Ion Battery SeparatorThin Polyester Nonwoven Used for Li-Ion Battery Separator

Ultra-Thin Polyester Nonwoven is used for Li-Ion Battery Separator.
Inorganic nanoparticle-coating enhances heat resistance and prevents thermal runaway.

  •  Reverse Osmosis MembraneReverse Osmosis Membrane

Hirose’s uniform, high-strength, Ultra-Thin Polyester Nonwoven  is suitable for the bucking layer of R/O Membrane which is used for desalination of seawater.

  •  Electromagnetic Noise Suppression Sheetcomputercellcamera

Hirose’s Ultra-Thin Polyester Nonwoven with metal-plating is thin, light and flexible. It prevents or diminishes electromagnetic interference in electric apparatus. Use of conductive adhesive layer enhances the easiness to attach to devices.

  •  Superinsulation 1

Insulated vacuum jackets are made of Thin Polyester Nonwoven and Aluminum foil. Nonwoven works as spacer separating foils. Nonwoven minimized heat conductance.

  •  Superinsulation 2image34

Ultra-Thin Polyester Nonwoven is suitable for Thermal Superinsulation Layer used for the High Temperature Superconductor (HTS) cable.
