 Engine Air Filtration. Passenger Car.
Requirements & Trends
High capacity, high efficiency
− NG offers a broad range of engine air
media
− With our gradient technology 1st and
2nd generation new market
requirements can be fulfilled
− New designed paper – meltblown
combinations for high-end applications
Mechanical & Pleat Stability
NG’s resin systems are self-designed
where we focus on:
− high stiffness in dry and wet conditions
− resistance against water and
temperature
→ fast re-drying of the media to avoid
filter collapsing.
− low dusting during further processing
Flame Retardancy Environment
Obligatory in Europe for OEM/OES (test − FSC® Certification
methods DIN 53438)
− Zero Emission
Characteristics of NG Flame Retardant
Paper − fast curing and no curing resins
− free of heavy metals and halogenated
compounds
− no chemical compounds, which are
classified according to the VDA-list
− good wet stiffness
− good evaporation performance
− fast curing [SGF2 / SGF3] or non cure
[HPF / HPF3; XPF]
− Water resistant test TL848 is fulfilled
with both cure and non-cure resins

Pioneer in Flame Retardancy

Pioneer in Flame Retardancy

− Neenah Gessner was the first to introduce flame retardant media in 1988
− Know-how for 30 years
− TL848 after water soaking test for curing and non-curing media
− 75% of our engine air media are flame retardant
− Market Leader in Europe with a market share of 65%

Real-life test with soot

Soot

Soot test rig

− Tests with ISO fine do not reflect real life

conditions. Especially in big cities
− where you have high soot contamination
that clogs the filter media much faster

Set-up flat sheet test

− Oil lamp with diesel fuel generates soot

− Measurement until prescribed pressure
difference is reached

REM Advantages

− Media help to avert soot contamination of engines

− Through media structure modification, the soot holding
capacity can be increased for single-layer media.
− New paper-meltblown combination for High Performance
application
