📢 UPDATE! Our latest Case Study is now LIVE, detailing our collaboration with CRP - The Corrosion Expert. 🚫 By the end of 2025, the European Union (EU) is expected to make a decision on a proposed ban of per- and polyfluoroalkyl compounds, a range of about 10,000 different chemicals, including #fluoropolymers such as perfluoroalkoxy alkanes (#PFA) and polytetrafluoroethylene (#PTFE).  Corrosion Resistant Products (CRP) utilise both PTFE and PFA as lining materials in their piping and broader equipment range. 💡 Through the CEAMS programme, CRP collaborated with a Senior Application Scientist from the Henry Royce Institute (Royce) to identify suitable materials that could be used to replace, wholly or in-part, PTFE and PFE usage in CRP’s production line 💡By accessing Royce's expertise, CRP are now able to streamline their research and development decisions ahead of the potential EU chemical ban. 📄🔗 Read the full Case Study here: https://lnkd.in/eFUjigZB #Materials #Sustainability #SustainableMaterials

Our latest Centre of Expertise in Advanced Materials and Sustainability (CEAMS) case study is now LIVE! CRP - The Corrosion Expert collaborated with Royce Senior Application Scientists through CEAMS to identify suitable material alternatives to #PTFE and #PFA ahead of a proposed EU chemical ban that would significant impact the company’s operations. By utilising Royce's expertise, CRP can make streamlined R&D decisions ahead of any potential upcoming regulatory changes. 🔗 📄 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/ecUmHrEM #materials #sustainability #SustainableMaterials

The Versatility of PTFE in High-Performance Applications Discover the exceptional qualities of PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), a fluorocarbon resin known for its unique characteristics. PTFE is a vital material in industries demanding high chemical resistance, thermal stability, and low friction. Key Features: • Chemical Resistance: Excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals. • Thermal Stability: Operates effectively in a broad temperature range from -200°C to +260°C. • Electrical Properties: Outstanding electrical insulation properties. • Low Friction: Ideal for sliding applications due to its non-stick properties. Applications: PTFE is widely used in industries such as food processing, aerospace, and oil and gas for components like seals, gaskets, and bearings. Its ability to withstand extreme conditions makes it an indispensable material in various high-performance applications.

What you need to know about PCB contaminated Transformer Oil By I.A.R. Gray-Oilwatch Transformer Services What are PCBs? PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) are a group of synthetic oil-like chemicals of the organochlorine family. It was first described in technical literature in 1881 and commercial production commenced in the late 1920’s. Until their toxic nature was recognized and their use was banned in the early 1980s, they were widely used as insulation in electrical equipment, particularly transformers. All commercially produced PCB’s are complex mixtures of many different congeners-PCB molecule containing a specific number of chlorine molecules at specific sites) Read more at https://lnkd.in/d8zF3QGy

The High Performance BFV is designed specifically for use in aggressive applications in the chemical, petrochemical, pulp and paper, and water treatment industries. The double-offset configuration with conical angled disc design provides a low torque, tight shut-off solution that provides high flow characteristics. The High Performance BFV is suitable for high pressure, high temperature, and high cycle applications.

WET-FLUORIDE ALL-PTFE CHEMICAL FILTER application on #microelectronic Membrane Solutions Wet-Fluoride series filters are All-PTFE structure. The filters use high flow rate #PTFE membranes,design could ensure low pressure drop across the filter and good particle removal performance. The fluoropolymer material possesses low concentration of extractables and other contaminants that may be deterimental to the proceess, and provides high retention performance in the application at the same time. Feature: ◎ Excellent flow performance and longer lifetime ◎ Excellent chemical and temperature resistance ◎ All fluoropolymer construction and very low extractables ◎ Pre-wet option for convenience ◎ 100% Integrity tested Application: Chemicals SC1, SC2, 49HF, HNO3, EKC and NMP in SEMI-WEC filtration.

Polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) is a high-performance thermoplastic that offers outstanding chemical resistance, low thermal expansion, and high mechanical strength. However, despite its exceptional properties, PCTFE is often considered an expensive material. There are several factors that contribute to the high cost of PCTFE. #pctfe #ptfe #peek #pfa #pvc

The PCB issues has not received much attention in South Africa and less so in other Southern Africian countries. Although SA has legislation the target's to remove PCB contaminated transformers from service has largely been ignored we also have a large number of smaller transformers that have not been tested to confirm their PCB status, furthermore other SADC countries have no legal frame work to address the issue. #PCB #Baselconvention #Persistentorganicpollutants (POPs) #UNEP #Insulatingoil
