Why Melt Blown Polypropylene Sorbents?<br />

What is melt blown Polypropylene (mbPP)?<br />

Melt Blown Polypropylene is an oil derivative that has<br />

the ability to be both oleophilic and hydrophobic.<br />

MBPP offers many advantages. Benefits you can<br />

translate into:<br />

■ Cost-savings<br />

■ Increased Productivity<br />

■ Increased Safety<br />

2. reduced adsorption time<br />

■<br />

■<br />

MBPP adsorbs immediately<br />

Granules takes more time to absorb<br />

1. higher adsorption capacity<br />

■<br />

■<br />

MBPP adsorbs 25x its own weight:<br />

e.g. to adsorb 10L, it will take approx.<br />

8.5 pads @ 64/g pad = 544g<br />

Granules absorbs 1x its own weight<br />

e.g. to absorb 10L, it will take approx.<br />

10kg @ 1kg/L = 10kg<br />

3. clean versus dirty<br />
