Below are their differences:

 1. **PTFE Membrane Lamination**
– **Process**: A very thin PTFE microporous membrane is laminated onto the surface of the filter material.
– **Characteristics**:
– **High Filtration Efficiency**: Capable of capturing sub-micron particles.
– **Surface Filtration**: Particles are trapped on the membrane surface, making it easy to clean.
– **Low Resistance**: Excellent air permeability with low pressure drop.
– **Chemical Resistance**: The PTFE membrane is corrosion-resistant, suitable for harsh environments.
– **Applications**: Ideal for high-precision filtration, such as in pharmaceuticals, food, and electronics industries.

2. **PTFE Impregnation**
– **Process**: The filter material is immersed in a PTFE emulsion, allowing it to penetrate into the fibers.
– **Characteristics**:
– **Depth Filtration**: Particles are captured within the material, offering high dust-holding capacity.
– **Abrasion Resistance**: Impregnation enhances the material’s wear resistance, extending its lifespan.
– **High-Temperature Resistance**: PTFE impregnation improves the material’s ability to withstand high temperatures.
– **Lower Cost**: The impregnation process is less expensive compared to membrane lamination.
– **Applications**: Suitable for high-temperature, high-dust environments, such as cement and metallurgy industries.

3. **Key Differences**
– **Filtration Mechanism**: Membrane lamination is surface filtration, while impregnation is depth filtration.
– **Filtration Efficiency**: Membrane lamination offers higher efficiency, ideal for high-precision filtration; impregnation provides greater dust-holding capacity.
– **Air Permeability**: Membrane lamination has better air permeability with lower pressure drop; impregnation has slightly lower air permeability.
– **Cost**: Membrane lamination is more expensive, while impregnation is more cost-effective.
– **Suitable Environments**: Membrane lamination is suited for high-precision, low-dust environments; impregnation is ideal for high-temperature, high-dust environments.

4. **Selection Recommendations**
– **PTFE Membrane Lamination**: Suitable for high-precision, low-dust applications requiring frequent cleaning.
– **PTFE Impregnation**: Suitable for high-temperature, high-dust environments requiring high dust-holding capacity.

Choose the appropriate treatment based on specific needs to achieve optimal filtration performance.
