General applications include: cleaning rooms, atmospheric air cleaning, woodworking applications, cement & rock products, and other general application handling ambient air. Chemical resistance is poor and flammability is high. Cotton filters offer good chemical resistance in dry, ambient conditions and is not recommended where mineral acids and oxidizing agents are present.
