Woven wire mesh filters and nickel wire mesh are both widely used in various industrial applications due to their specific properties and benefits. 1. Woven Wire Mesh Filters: - Material: Woven wire mesh filters can be made from a variety of materials including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and more. The material chosen depends on the specific application requirements. - Function: These filters are designed to separate particles based on size. They are commonly used in filtration systems for liquids, gases, and solids. Applications range from food and beverage processing to pharmaceuticals, oil and gas industries, and water treatment. - Characteristics: They offer high precision, durability, and can be customized with different mesh counts (the number of openings per linear inch) to suit specific filtration needs. 2. Nickel Wire Mesh: - Material: As the name suggests, this type of mesh is made from nickel or nickel alloys. Nickel has excellent corrosion resistance and can withstand high temperatures, making it ideal for harsh environments. - Function: Nickel wire mesh is used in a variety of applications where resistance to corrosion, heat, and chemicals is critical. It's often found in catalytic converters, battery separators, filtration systems in chemical processing, and even in the aerospace industry. - Characteristics: It is known for its flexibility, strength, and ability to maintain these properties over a wide range of temperatures.
