Why buy a sorbent?
Polypropylene, which is characterised by its chemical and mechanical resistance, has been used for the production of the sorbent mat. The mat belongs to the MEDIUM product line. These textile sorbents are an effective and simple means of capturing spillages in a smaller space, such as a workbench or storage area. They are available in a 50 × 40 cm size.
Benefits
Due to the large internal volume of the fabric and the large surface area of the microfibres, this sorbent has a high sorption capacity.
Thickness of the textile sorbent
A thick sorbent is a fabric with a higher surface weight and thickness. As a result, it can absorb large quantities of leaked liquids. It is best used in operations with a risk of large or continuous spills of hazardous substances.
Textile sorbent design
The mats are particularly suitable for smaller everyday spills, for example during maintenance work, cleaning or equipment leaks. Excellent for long-term use.
Application
Textile universal sorbents are designed for the sorption of all non-aggressive liquids. They quickly and safely soak up emulsions, oils, grease, petroleum, solvents, water, aqueous solutions or weak chemical solutions. They are used in warehousing, manufacturing or repair facilities to prevent the release of hazardous substances or to deal with emergency situations in the event of a sudden release of these liquids.
The use of these sorbents will provide you with:
Perforation
Perforation allows you to tear off the necessary piece of fabric and better use the sorbent surface area. The longitudinal perforation of this MPM 5040 sorbent allows it to adapt to the needs of a specific workplace, for example to cover rugged surfaces.
Packaging
The sorbents are supplied in a practical dispensing box that protects them from being soiled and degraded before use. It helps to preserve sorption capacity (with area under long-term loading, sorption capacity can be reduced by loss of free volume). This packaging makes the sorbent ready for immediate use.
Notice
These sorbents cannot be used for extracting oil from the water surface as they preferentially absorb water and aqueous solutions and therefore sink to the bottom.
Disposal of used sorbents
Disposal of used sorbents is governed by the properties of the absorbed liquids, by internal guidelines for handling chemicals and also by law - important laws are No. 185/2001 Coll. on waste or No. 350/2011 Coll. on chemicals and mixtures. We recommend that hazardous waste is handed over to a specialist company for the disposal of hazardous substances.
Sorbent ranges
MEDIUM series textile sorbents are made of a special microfibrous polypropylene non-woven fabric, which is additionally reinforced by ultrasonic bonding. This significantly increases the strength and surface resistance of the sorbent. They are best used in operations where mechanical resistance and reduced fibre release from the surface is required. They allow for occasional crossing and movement of people.
