Modified PTFE with excellent adaptability
novaflon® 100 consists of structured PTFE and is filled with hollow glass microspheres. The material is universally resistant to nearly all chemicals throughout the entire pH range. novaflon® 100 is perfect for use in acids above 85 °C. Optimal filler integration gives the material low basic porosity and enables it to achieve a very low leakage rate, even with already low surface pressure.
novaflon® 100 exhibits high compressibility and perfectly adapts to the respective sealing surface. This enables novaflon® 100 to easily compensate for light damage to the sealing surfaces and provide a reliable seal even with lower surface pressure. novaflon® 100 is therefore ideal for use in GFRP flanges and enameled flanges of pipes and apparatus.
Creep properties have been optimized in novaflon® 100, thus the gasket exhibits minimal hot creep behavior. In turn, this results in good residual stress.
novaflon® 100 gaskets can be produced with all conventional processing techniques. novaflon® 100 is quick and simple to install and, thanks to their excellent anti-stick properties, the gaskets can be removed again after use without leaving any residues.
