Fluoropolymers for Oil & Gas

Oil & Gas exploration and recovery is probably the harshest of all applications for polymeric materials. The temperatures and pressures; the corrosive chemicals present and the operational life expected of such materials requires that only premium, high performance grades are used.

Our fluid handling/barrier products are used extensively in downhole operations (umbilicals) and our sealing components are widely utilised in ‘on and off-shore’ pipeline flange constructions.

Key component characteristics:

  • • Excellent aging; very little change in mechanical properties over time
  • • Environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR)
  • • Low surface energy; non-stick
  • • Low permeation
  • • Excellent chemical resistance
  • • Superior flexibility/ductility at very low temperatures
  • • Non-flammable
Gas Analysis

PFA and FEP tubing benefits for Gas Analyser manufacturers

In gas analysis, accuracy and dependability are paramount. Whether measuring trace contaminants, monitoring emissions or ensuring process control, the integrity of the sampling system directly impacts data accuracy. One critically important component is the tubing used to transport gases from the source to the analyser. Among the available materials, PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy alkane) and FEP (Fluorinated […]
