Abstract
Fibrous filtration media for hot oil filtration includes a nonwoven fibrous web containing synthetic fibers and at least about 15 wt. %, based on total weight of the fibrous web, of a binder component selected from thermoset binder resins and/or binder fibers. The synthetic fibers of the fibrous web will contain from about 2 wt. % to about 65 wt. %, for example between about 10 wt. % to about 50 wt. %, based on total weight of fibers in the fibrous web, of thermoplastic synthetic microfibers having an average diameter of less than 5 μlτl. The synthetic fibers are bonded together with the binder component to form the fibrous web which is capable of forming a self-supporting, pleated oil filter media which retains pleats upon contact with oil having a temperature in a range encountered in an internal combustion engine.
