Water & Environmental

Market Overview

Today, the environmental sector is crucial since protecting and keeping an eye on the environment are of the biggest importance. The environmental market includes sampling above and below ground and air, water, and soil monitoring.

Significant market segments have been created as a result of the abundance of air pollutants, chemical fluids (from consumer, commercial, and industrial sources), naturally occurring dangers including low-level radioactivity, deep hole mining operations, and other regions.

Since none of the powders in our selection of PTFE, PVDF, FEP, and PFA leach, the sample integrity is maintained from the source through collection and testing. Due to the characteristics and advantages of fluoropolymers, these solutions offer the environmental business a dependable way of acquiring precise samples and monitoring activities.

Advantages offered by our materials in this industry:

  • Due to its nearly universal chemical resistance, PTFE is the preferred fluoropolymer.
  • PFA has a high purity and it’s UV resistant
  • PVDF is used in applications requiring the highest purity. PVDF is also one of the highest radiation resistant plastics available, only seconded by PEEK and Polyimide.
  • FEP, which is PTFE’s most affordable brother, can also be extremely helpful to the environmental industry. In addition to having transparent walls and a use temperature of 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius), it has a working pressure that is 30% higher than PTFE. It is also excellent for water disinfection and environmental applications.

Applications:

  • Renewable Energy
  • Wastewater Disposal
  • Water Treatment
  • Power Plant Engineering

What is PCTFE? Polychlorotrifluoroethylene

PCTFE, Kel- F® or Neoflon®, is a homopolymer of chlorotrifluoroethylene with unique properties. Its resistance to cold flow, dimensional stability, rigidity, low gas permeability, and low moisture absorption are superior…
