The Technology of combining a Special Fluoropolymer to High Quality Elastomers is a benefit in applications with Extreme Corrosive Chemical Conditions and/or high requirements for Ultra-Purity, where either an elastomer with a satisfactory performance doesn't exist, or such elastomers are prohibitively expensive.

For standard custom gasketing and other sealing elastomer-based parts, such as diaphragm blankets, Prince has developed the technology for bonding, encapsulating and enveloping desirable fluoropolymer films to high  performance elastomers.

• The cross-sectional shapes that offer the longest life.
•  Reliable design of  inside corners on seals.
•  The thickness of  Fluoropolymer Films to eliminate permeation problems.
•  Jointless or reliable welded designs with a minimum of welds.
•  This technology in  most cases is a less expensive alternative than fluoroelastomers.

THE  ELASTOMER "Panacea" 6962 Special EPDM, a world-wide  proven material, is used for this technology and variations of this stock can also be used where required. 6962 offers a service range  of -40° F to 300° F. Other elastomers can be utilized where appropriate.

THE  FLUOROPOLYMER "Panacea"' F230LP Special PTFE material  is ideal for these applications due to the superior Chemical Resistance of PTFE and Temperature Range of up to 500° F. The Special F230LP material has increased permeation resistance and toughness  compared to standard PTFE. Other Fluoropolymers such as FEP, PFA, PTFE, and F130 can also be utilized where appropriate. The noncontaminating  nature of all of these Fluoropolymers make them ideal for ultra-pure  applications. Specify: Virgin material when used for ultra-pure applications.
