PVDF/ECTFE/FEP/PFA/PTFE SHEET LINING ON METAL EQUIPMENT
Fluoropolymer sheet lining is designed to withstand the corrosion of virtually all corrosive fluids. It possesses an outstanding combination of chemical, thermal and non-stick properties, coupled with mechanical durability
There are two types of sheet lining available:
(1)Bonded Sheet Lining
Fluoropolymer sheet with glass fiber backed is bonded to metal with help of adhesive & Joints are subsequently thermo welded together. This system is available in 1.5,2, 3 & 4 mm thick sheet of PVDF, ECTFE FEP,PFA & PTFE
This is suitable upto max 120°C & is suitable for Full Vacuum.
(2)Loose Sheet Lining
Fluoropolymer sheet is welded together & inserted into metal equipment without bonding .This system is available in 1.5,2, 3 & 4mm Thick sheet of FEP, PFA & PTFE .This is suitable Upto 200°c but not suitable for vacuum Application.
Corrosion Resistance of Fluoropolymer
A. PVDF
Resistant to most acids, alkalis, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon, alcohols and strong oxidizing agent. Highly polar solvents such as acetone & acetate may cause swelling
-
B. ECTFE(HALAR)
Resistant to strong acids, organic solvent .chlorine and aqueous caustic. Not stress cracked any organic fluids. Swelled by some chlorinated solvents.
-
C. FEP, PFA, PTFE
Inert to virtually all chemicals with the exception of a few per fluorinated compounds
