Abstract
Compacts made by powder-metallurgical methods from fibres, i.e. particles whose length is greater than their diameter or width, have characteristics which render them particularly suitable for filters. The use of long metal fibres not only eliminates closed-pore formation almost entirely, but also enables sintering to be dispensed with, if necessary. The preparation of metal-fibre filters and their properties are described.
