Able to withstand demanding operating conditions, porous metal components and filters are available in various refractory metal alloys – zirconium, titanium, tungsten, molybdenum, and niobium – that exhibit chemical resistance, strength, and thermal stability. Porous components or entire filter assemblies can be designed to meet various flow control or filtration requirements to exacting tolerances and down to sub-micron particulate removal. Melting points range from 2,400°C to over 3,400°C.
