Abstract: This disclosure deals with a new booth filter that has demonstrated improved paint
retention characteristics when compared to booth filters that are currently available. This new filter incorporates a two-ply construction consisting of a white polyvinyl acetate layer and a green polyethylene terephthalate (PET) layer; together these two layers constitute a 2.0” loft product with a weight of 1.80 ounces per square foot. Polyvinyl acetate is used as a binder. Recycled post consumer PET material made from plastic bottles is a 6 den natural green polyester blend. The white layer serves to collect paint overspray while the second layer has been designed for the highest efficiency, trapping more coatings in the filter media thereby preventing a higher percentage of solids from entering the environment. The new product has been named the Binks Receptor.
