Semiconductor Solvent Tank
"All our problems are now solved using the right sealing material"
the challenge
A well known chemical company experienced issues with its O Rings in their solvent production plant where they manufacture high purity chemicals for a wet clean process. The customer was using inefficient elastomers in their outdoor tank. The concerns were around the elastomer being too rigid at temperatures below +10°C (+50°F), contamination, and installation issues.
the solution
To use Perlast® G100XT FFKM as it provides lower modulus, ultra-high purity, and capability to withstand low temperatures down to -20°C (-4°F).
the result
Perlast® G100XT FFKM O Rings solved all the customer's problems. The customer now enjoys a simpler installation and increased sealing performance and efficiency during the winter months.
