OSTI ID:697009
Fluoropolymers are ubiquitous in the pulp and paper industry. Fluoropolymer-lined pumps, valves, pipes, tanks, scrubbers, and towers are encountered frequently in the pulp mill. Chemically resistant fluoropolymer filter fabrics are used in bleach plant washers and flue gas scrubbers. In the recovery cycle, fluoropolymer coatings and fluoroelastomers are used as gaskets and expansion joints in accumulators and heat exchangers. Fluoropolymer-containing paper machine fabrics, roll covers, and greases provide corrosion-free, clean and smooth performance. The array of fluorinated materials for different applications is detailed. New corrosion and caustic resistant filter fabrics, surfacing veils, paints and ductwork are presented.
