1.High liquid absorption and retention capacity
The unique porosity provides a large surface area with an open cell structure. Therefore, the natural cellulose sponge is able to absorb 20 to 27 times its own dry weight of water and retain this in its pore structure. The cellulose sponge will retain the liquid until this capacity is reached. This feature can also be seen with other fluids such as motor oil, petroleum, gasoline, and also diluted acid (e. g. formic acid
or nitric acid).
2.Tensile strength
Our sponge is one of the most resistant sponge on the market. It is a huge advantage compared to cotton cloths, non-woven cloths and paper wipes.
3.Biodegradability
Our cellulose sponge material is 100% biodegradable.
4.Chemical Resistance
Chemical analysis has shown a good stability with several diluted acids and bases.
5.Electrical conductivity
In humid conditions the Electrical conductivity of natural cellulose sponge is outstanding. This feature is often used in electro therapy.
6.Combustibility & temperature resistance
Cellulose sponge material is flammable although combustibility rates can vary with impregnated fluids. Thermographic analysis with cellulose shows that sponge starts to burn away at more than 300 °C.
7.Sterilization
Our sponge can be sterilized either by gamma radiation, autoclave or ETO gas.
8.Washability
Our cellulose sponge material is machine washable up to 95°C with detergent.
9.Warehousing and Transportation
In their compressed state cellulose sponges have the perfect requirements for warehousing and transportation. They are light weight and take less space, fantastic properties for low transportation and warehousing costs.
