Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electret is disclosed including: a carrier, and polytetrafluoroethylene having a melting point of 35° C. or higher and 320° C. or lower deposited on the carrier, wherein the electret imparts an electrostatic charge to at least one of the carrier and the polytetrafluoroethylene, and has two or more melting point peaks in simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential thermal analysis. An electret filter is disclosed which preferably is used for a filter which requires durability to tobacco smoke. An electret filter is also disclosed having a fluorine-containing component deposited on a fiber surface, wherein an initial QF value is 0.5 mmAq−1 or more in collection efficiency of particles having a particle diameter of 0.3 to 0.5 μm at a wind speed of 5 cm/s, and a filter deterioration rate by tobacco smoke loading is −8/(g/m2) or more.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An electret filter having a fluorine-containing component deposited on a fiber surface, wherein: the electret filter has an initial Quality Factor (QF) value of 0.05 Pa −1 or more in collection efficiency of particles having a particle diameter of 0.3 to 0.5 μm at a wind speed of 5 cm/s, and a filter deterioration rate by tobacco smoke loading of −8/(g/m 2 ) or more, and the fluorine-containing component is at least one of a fluorine-containing polycyclic compound having a melting point of 100° C. or higher and a fluorine-containing polymer having a melting point or a glass transition temperature of 100° C. or higher. 2. The electret filter according to claim 1 , wherein the fiber has an effective fiber diameter of 0.1 μm to 20 μm.
