Micron size pore

Control of pore size and porosity

Selection of either open or closed cell

Manufacturing　Range
Pore Size : 1～100μm
Open Cell : Porosity　30～80%
Closed Cel l : Porosity　～45%

※Definition of Pore Size
Sizes of the joint area of connecting open cells can be measured and defined as pore size.The size is about one fifth of the observed maximum pore diameter.
