Chemical Processing Industry

The chemical processing industry demands high-quality solutions that ensure purity, precision and accuracy. Our expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) solutions ensure that your equipment and systems can achieve precisely that. We manufacture ePTFE membranes that maintain their tensile strength while allowing for easy manipulation and maximum performance.

What Is the Chemical Processing Industry?

Chemical processing is not merely an industry unto itself. It is an integral part of different industries, from pharmaceuticals to cosmetics and fertilizers. Its core function is to transform materials into the products we use daily. Manufacturers achieve this through various chemical reactions and processes that require exact measuring, perfect timing and total equipment functionality.

Purpose of ePTFE Chemical Processing Solutions

ePTFE is a transindustrial material with proven capabilities across multiple domains of the chemical processing industry. Chemical processing solutions that rely on ePTFE offer benefits like:

  • UV protection: Chemical reactions can be affected by elemental forces like solar radiation. ePTFE membranes effectively block UV radiation to maintain scientific integrity and protect equipment from degradation.
  • Dust-resistance: Product purity is an essential component in the chemical processing industry. ePTFE helps you achieve purity by keeping contaminants like dust from infiltrating processes and systems.
  • Thermal protection: ePTFE membranes retain their functionality in high-temperature environments familiar to the chemical processing industry. This feature guards your equipment and products from thermal damage.
  • Chemical stability: ePTFE’s molecular stability means it will not react with the unstable and highly reactive chemicals frequently used in chemical processes.
  • Waterproofing: The ePTFE membrane and laminates are hydrophobic, restricting moisture infiltration into your equipment and ensuring durability.

Applications of Expanded PTFE in Chemical Processing

You can use ePTFE in several ways in the chemical processing industry. Some of the different places you can find our ePTFE technology include:

  • Storage tanks: ePTFE possesses protective qualities that make it ideal for storage tank lining. Companies use our performance polymer to line tanks with aggressive chemicals to protect the tank from corrosion.
  • Reactors: ePTFE is used in reactors due to properties like chemical stability. This inertness ensures reactions occur in safe environments that protect equipment from damage while maintaining reaction precision.
  • Pipe flange: ePTFE is an ideal material for inserting into pipe flanges, as it helps form a tight seal against abrasive substances like acids. Its ability to work on different surfaces, including various metals and plastics, makes it a versatile solution for manufacturers.
  • Valves: ePTFE is also used in valves. Its chemical resistance safeguards the equipment from erosion and ensures long-term use.
  • Electrical devices: Chemical processing plants use various devices, such as sensors and monitors, to maintain reaction accuracy. Using ePTFE laminates on these devices protects them from fluid damage and helps keep them functional longer.
