Custom
Processing
FluoroResist lined glove box for the processing of radioactive
materials, high purity pharmaceuticals or semiconductor devices, FluoroResist
provides excellent chemical resistance, ease of fabrication, and easy cleaning.
Fibre
(Non-Woven)
FluoroResist nonwoven surface veils can replace polyester and
glass for surface forming and reinforcement in FRP composites. It is resistant
tot all acids and bases and adds corrosion, temperature, and permeation
resistance to corrosion and marine thermoset composites.
Food
Processing
FluoroResist stabilized DA grades comply with the FDA's
Register of Food Additive Regulations. FluoroResist unstabilized grades are
suitable for repeated use applications at temperatures up to 100ºC
(212ºF) in contact with non-fatty foods, under FDA 21
CRF 177.1380. FluoroResist is particularly suited for use with acidic food,
fruit and juice processing.
Medical
ITS
Industrials does not recommend the use of FluoroResist for medical applications.
Oil and Gas
Ideal
material for use in the oil and gas industry due to its good mechanical
properties and excellent chemical resistance to a wide variety of organic and
inorganic chemicals, even at elevated temperatures. Oil Field applications
include shock tubing, encapsulated injection tubing, coated rod, and coated
control cables. The tough, resistant FluoroResist coating extends the life of
many down hole components in harsh well environments.
Semiconductor/High-Purity
Clean
room, DI water high-purity processing systems; chemicals handing systems
including unsupported and supported piping, tanks, vessels; Factory Mutual
Approved for fume and smoke exhaust ducting with a longer service life than
stainless steel. The micro-smooth surface of FluoroResist can be a significant
benefit in high purity applications. FluoroResist ECTFE has superior chemical
resistance and high temperature resistance up to 150ºC
(300ºF).
