Benefits and uses of Rubber and PTFE Products

We are engaged in manufacturing of an across-the-board assortment of industrial rubber components. Air operated double diaphragm pump These industrial rubber components find wide application in several engineering and other heavy industries and are known for their features of resilience and high tensile strength. We undertake the customization of these industrial rubber components in accordance with their application or the demands of our clients.

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a remarkable polymeric material. Not only is it highly chemical resistant, durable, flexible, and electrically and thermally resistive, it is also an extremely cost-effective option for high-performance seals and ‘O’ rings. Here, Antliaworks Polymer Solutions talks you through PTFE’s uses and properties.

The benefits of PTFE

Due to PTFE’s prevalent carbon-fluorine bonds – widely regarded as the strongest single bond in organic chemistry – it offers high flexural strength and is chemically inert. It also provides excellent electrical insulation and dielectric strength; is extremely weatherable and non-adhesive; is water-resistant; offers high-temperature resistance and has the lowest coefficient of friction of any solid.

PTFE also features a broad operating temperature range, from -30°C to +200°C, has a hardness range of 70 to 85 IRHD and is easy to clean. Best of all, given all of these admirable traits, PTFE it is a relatively cost-effective elastomeric option for seals and ‘O’ rings. The disadvantage of PTFE as a sealing material is that it will creep under compression. Antliaworks have solved this problem by using a bonded rubber core to energize PTFE seals, providing resistance to compression. The core material is selected depending upon the temperature required for the seal.

What is PTFE used for?

PTFE’s beneficial properties enable it to be used in a wide range of applications, such as seals (including PTFE ‘O’ rings), PTFE gaskets, valves, wire insulation, insulated transformers, bearings, surface coatings, chemical processing equipment, chemical transport, and PTFE rubber diaphragms – to name but a few.

Chemical & Refineries:

AODD Pump can manage all types of chemicals admit acids, bases, solvents and alkalis, resins and adhesives, high-density liquids and viscous products even with the presence of solid parts and particles. Moreover, they can also transfer oil skimming, oil sludge, stormwater, seawater, drainage water, latex, corrosion inhibitors, fertilizer, pesticides, insecticides and more.

The AODD Pump finds application in the pumping of raw materials and derivatives, stormwater drainage, unload trucks, sump, and tanks drainage, empty the cistern and to be used in wastewater treatment, desalination plants, scrubber’s application, distillation plant, and filters press.

PTFE’s chemical resistance

The chemical resistance of PTFE is potentially its most impressive characteristic. Simply put, there are no solvents that can dissolve PTFE at room temperature. In fact, barring a handful of chemical agents, including chlorine trifluoride and elementary fluorine, PTFE’s only real Achilles heel is its relatively poor resistance to high energy radiation, which causes the breakdown of the PTFE molecule.

Antlia Engineering Works is one of the most important manufactures peristaltic pump and AODD pumps in Australia, middle east, Africa & all over India. One can choose pumps that top-grade suits their needs.
