‘Perfluoroelastomer’
A Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Valves protect high purity media from
Gems Sensors, which we summarised at the time by saying "Two-way high-flow miniature isolation valves target OEMs in a wide variety of applications, including remediation equipment, clinical chemistry equipment, analytical instrumentation and printing.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release New facilities boost seal production from
Trelleborg Sealing Solutions UK: "Trelleborg Sealing Solutions' new facility houses a newly equipped materials test laboratory and the UK research and development centre. ".
In March 2007, we covered the news from Precision Polymer Engineering
- take a look at Elastomer seals tolerate harsh conditions
which says: "Precision Polymer Engineering's Endura range of elastomer seals offer the widest operating temperature range currently available, from -45 to +225C. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Busak + Shamban, Materials answer aerospace sealing demands,
as well as Perfluoroelastomer material wins Queen's Award from Precision Polymer Engineering,
and Nanotechnology boosts fluoroelastomer performance from Precision Polymer Engineering.
