An experimental determination of the retention of submicron particles in fibrous materials

  • 1. Loughborough Univ. of Technology (UK)

Description

A method of determining the grade efficiency for the collection of submicron particles in fibrous materials is described. A polydispersed submicron salt aerosol is used and the Sartorius scintillation counter is employed as a detection system. The results of tests on a fibrous mat are presented and are compared with theory. The influence of filter packing density particularly is described
