Abstract
Use of an electrically charged nonwoven fabric that is made of a fiber predominantly composed of an amorphous polymer provides a novel filtration material having improved performance compared to that of conventional filtration materials, and having excellent heat resistance and excellent flame retardancy as well as an electrically charged nonwoven fabric for use in the filtration material. It is preferable that the surface charge density is greater than or equal to 1×10coulomb/cm. It is preferable that the collection efficiency for collecting a dust particle with a particle diameter of 1 μm flowing at a fabric-passing velocity of 8.6 cm/second is greater than or equal to 40%, the QF value is greater than or equal to 0.05, and the decrement of the dust-particle collection efficiency after being allowed to leave at 100° C. for 24 hours is less than or equal to 10%.
