Metal Wire Gauze Structured Packing is the premier high-efficiency regular packing for demanding fine chemical separation processes. It is constructed from multiple layers of fine woven wire gauze, crimped into a corrugated form and assembled into tightly packed blocks, with adjacent sheets having opposing corrugation angles. The capillary action of the wire mesh creates an exceptionally uniform, highly active liquid film over the entire surface, delivering the highest theoretical plate counts per meter of any industrial packing. This makes it the definitive choice for vacuum distillation of heat-sensitive materials, isomer separation, and high-purity fine chemical production.

Product Highlights

• Ultra-High Separation Efficiency: Delivers theoretical plates up to 10 per meter (BX type) and 20 per meter (CY type), significantly outperforming standard structured packings in difficult separations.
• Superior Capillary Liquid Distribution: The fine wire mesh generates strong capillary forces that spread liquid evenly across the entire surface, completely eliminating dry spots and channeling.
• Extremely Low Pressure Drop: Vacuum-friendly design with minimal gas-phase resistance, allowing operation at very low column pressures to protect heat-sensitive products.
• Minimum Liquid Holdup: Low liquid hold-up volume reduces product degradation time and enables rapid process stabilization, ideal for small-scale batch distillation.
• Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Available in 304/316L stainless steel, Hastelloy, Monel, and other alloys to withstand aggressive chemicals and process fluids.
• Precise Custom Fabrication: Blocks are accurately cut and assembled to precise diameters, with tight wall-wiping seals that prevent bypassing and maintain peak column performance.
