Design for Purity: Choose Halar® ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer (ECTFE) by Solvay

Halar® ECTFE by Solvay: Engineered for Purity and Protection

Halar® is a translucent, semi-crystalline fluorinated resin that melts and processes cleanly, making it a natural fit for electrostatic powder coating applications. It is especially well suited to guarding surfaces against corrosion and aggressive chemical exposure, while its electrical, thermal and mechanical performance stands out. Because Halar® from Solvay is remarkably pure, simple to process and offers strong permeation resistance, flame resistance and toughness, it has become a preferred material for chemical processing, semiconductor manufacturing and pharmaceutical operations — including valves, piping, pumps, fans, chutes and blowers.

Large-Scale Coating Capability from Industrial Fluoro-Plastics

Industrial Fluoro-Plastics, Inc. can coat equipment of virtually any size at a competitive price and to the highest quality standards. Computer-controlled ovens range from standard laboratory dimensions up to 14 by 14 by 45 feet, and a separate on-site facility handles every preparation step, including grit blasting. According to company president Bob Chavez, the largest workpiece coated so far measured 33 feet long with an 8-foot diameter and weighed 54,000 pounds — and an even bigger structure of 62,000 pounds and 35 feet in length is scheduled for coating soon.
