• Filters

The filter's role is to capture foreign substances, so clogging will inevitably occur. When replacing the filter, it is necessary to replace it with a new filter and, if needed, the gasket as well. Additionally, a small amount of product loss, discarded filters, and rags will be calculated as additional costs. Since the line will be stopped, manufacturing time will also increase. Thus, as the frequency of filter replacements increases, the costs associated with the product will also rise, making it very important to reduce the number of replacements. Furthermore, reducing waste contributes to the protection of the global environment. 【Proposal】 Proposal from Sumitomo Pharma Food & Chemical Co., Ltd. ■ We will use our Suita Research Center to verify the current filter and consider the appropriate filter for your company.

• Food Factory Equipment

The oil that is dissolved in an emulsion state in the liquid is removed by adsorbing it with a bag filter made of melt-blown polypropylene fibers with oil adsorption capability. Food itself inherently contains oil, and this oil is extracted along with the components during the extraction process. However, if that oil deteriorates, it can degrade the taste and other qualities of the product. Therefore, it is necessary to remove it during production. Since it is a bag filter, it can be installed on the production line and used while filtering the product, allowing it to serve dual purposes with one unit. If there are no oil components, a standard filter can also be used. It is also possible to operate it solely for emergency responses. 【Applications】 ■ Fruit juice ■ Coffee beverages ■ Extracts of food 【Product Overview】 EATON Corporation (Eaton Filtration) ■ Element material: Melt-blown polypropylene ■ Filtration accuracy (nominal): 1 to 25 microns *Detailed catalog is available below. https://premium.ipros.jp/mp-gokyo-fc/product/detail/2000619961/?hub=163&categoryId=55860

However, to create filters with a small average pore diameter, resins with small particle sizes are necessary. The reality is that such resins are not widely available in the market. This product is made from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene with very small particles, allowing for the production of polyethylene porous sintered filters with uniform pore diameters due to its spherical shape and narrow particle size distribution. 【Basic Physical Properties of Fine Particles and Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene】 ■ Molecular Weight: 1.8 to 2 million ■ Particle Size: 10, 25, 30, 60 microns (general grade) ■ Melting Point: 136℃ 【Characteristics】 ■ Capable of manufacturing sintered filters with uniform pore sizes (average pore diameter also in the single-digit micron range) ■ By increasing the sintering temperature, tensile strength and elongation can be significantly improved, making it less prone to cracking ■ Excellent non-absorbency, high chemical resistance, and strong resistance to aging are achievable *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The additives used in plastic and metal paints are employed for modifying coating films (improving slip properties, scratch resistance, and durability), enhancing texture (glossy or matte finishes), and altering tactile properties. This product can lower the friction coefficient of the paint film surface and improve the durability of the film when added to the paint. Additionally, it allows for matte finishes and tactile modifications. It is adopted in various substrates such as urethane-based, acrylic-based, and epoxy-based materials, and can be used not only in solvent-based paints but also in water-based paints with just a small amount of dispersant. Powder coating can also be selected as a painting method. Conventional ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has a large particle size of over 100μ, making it unsuitable for use as an additive. However, this product can reduce the particle size to as small as 10μ, enabling the high slip properties and durability of UHMWPE to be imparted to the paint. 【Expected Functions】 - Slip properties and scratch resistance - Abrasion resistance and durability (alternative to PTFE) - Matte finish effect - Suitable for food-related applications (compliant with FDA standards and Polyethylene Association standards) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Filters are one of the essential elements that determine the quality of a product. The selection of filters needs to be tailored to your company's quality management and product characteristics. However, the filters currently available for sale come with many options in terms of filtration methods, filtration precision, and filter media types, making it difficult to quickly determine which is appropriate. Incorrect choices will not lead to quality improvement and may result in excessive consumption of elements and longer manufacturing times, which will lead to increased product costs. Before blindly entering into filter selection research or on-site testing, please consult with us once. 【Proposal from MP Gokyo Food & Chemical】 ■ We will use our Suita Research Center to verify the current filters and consider the appropriate filters for your company. ■ We can provide filter advice based on our extensive product knowledge and application knowledge (EATON products). ■ We can offer advice on line installation and other matters while being present at your site. 【Selection】 ■ For inquiries regarding selection tests, please feel free to contact us at the following: Email: chemical-senryaku@mpgfc.co.jp *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The filter's role is to capture foreign substances, so clogging will inevitably occur. When replacing the filter, it is necessary to replace it with a new filter and, if needed, the gasket as well. Additionally, a small amount of product loss, discarded filters, and rags will be calculated as additional costs. Since the line will be stopped, manufacturing time will also increase. Thus, as the frequency of filter replacements increases, the costs associated with the product will also rise, making it very important to reduce the number of replacements. Furthermore, reducing waste contributes to the protection of the global environment. 【Proposal】 Proposal from MP Gokyo Food & Chemical Co. ■ We will use our Suita Research Center to verify the current filter and consider the appropriate filter for your company.
