Disinfection is not afraid of the new rubber seal material

All with oil, grease, as well as in situ CIP cleaning and disinfection liquid, or SIP in situ steam heat contact with each other, sanitation and disinfection requirements of the seals, or permeable membrane technology demanding pieces of molding applications, the new FKM material Show that its unique advantages.

Trelleborg's research and development of a new type of fluorinated rubber compounds have amazing performance. This use of the material conditions of the seals can meet the standards in some of the best material for sealing the request. It tells us that technology is constantly updated for more than a standard.

CIP cleaning in situ and in situ SIP disinfection technology, as well as steam heat sterilization techniques, all of the "sterile" to use the occasion of the seals, membrane permeability and other raw materials, parts and components made of high demands. In order to be able to afford a long period of thinner, acid and high temperature hot, Trelleborg's research and development of a new type of synthetic material - FKM fluorinated rubber compounds Resifluor 500.

This material has a very good performance over the EPDM, fluorine rubber and elastomer materials such as fluoride. It is not only suitable as a dynamic but also can be used as static seals in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical production and food manufacturers to use, especially in those seals should not only contact with the products, but also with detergent and disinfectant , Or come into contact with hot steam occasions. For example, flow control valves in the equipment seals, pipeline junction of the seals. All that is the temperature at 60 ~ 90 ℃ between the components of cleansing and disinfection, or 130 ~ 150 ℃ steam disinfection of parts and components can use this material seals.

The high performance of anti-stripping

In the seals, molding pieces of membrane penetration and the design of the structure should be noted that the parts should be easy to clean and can not clean to the health of the dead. As the need for sanitation and disinfection of the parts are cleaned by the water when high-speed impact, so the use of building materials should have a very high anti-stripping performance.

In addition, the CIP in situ cleaning, and immersion with toluene, acetone and ethane, such as cleaning fluid immersion cleaning methods, in the production of medical products in the cleaning equipment would also like to note that parts of corrosion-resistant chemical.

Resifluor series of VCT 90 and VCT 95 by the non-polarization, non-acidic fluoride of fluorinated elastomers made from polymer, has a high resistance to alkali, acid, thinner and performance. 150 ℃ in temperature, 30% potassium hydroxide solution soak in 3 days, potassium hydroxide content of just 12%. Both materials are to meet the U.S. Food and Drug Administration FDA with the relevant provisions of the meet USP <88> (USP Class VI), as well as from October 2006 entry into force of the EU 1935/2004 directive.
