Fluorinated coatings have been widely used on textiles and nonwoven fabrics due to their excellent water and oil repellent properties. However, polymeric coatings now offer similar performance while addressing current market needs. Our innovative polymeric coating technology offers a new…

Across industries, manufacturers are replacing metals with lightweight plastic composites. Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRPs) and thermoplastics (CFRTPs) are stiffer and up to ten times stronger than steel. They reduce the weight, emissions and energy costs of cars, airplanes and…

Critical components like O-rings, gaskets and other seals must be made from durable materials that resist harsh chemicals, heat and pressure. Perfluoroelastomers (FFKMs) are a leading material choice for these components. They are manufactured with surfactants and fluorinated polymerization solvents,…
