Abstract

Abstract A lubricant filter for internal combustion engines comprises a paper filter element in which magnetised particles, such as micronized iron oxides, are dispersed and anchored; this enables ferrous metal particles in the lubricant to be removed more effectively and radically by magnetic attraction.
