Plastic pump material
introduction (fluorine plastics, engineering plastics - ultra high molecular
weight polyethylene)
Fluorine plastic has
excellent corrosion resistance. Fluoroplastic pump can almost resist all
chemical media and have wear resistance to handle the fluids with temperature
below 100℃. Fluorine plastic pump such as Kenshine-pump
model: IHF, FSB, FZB and other pumps
Ultra high molecular
weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has excellent chemical resistance. Except for
strong oxidizing acid, it can withstand other acids within concentration 35%. UHMWPE
pump can handle the acid fluids with temperature below 90℃ and have wear
resistance. Corrosion-resistant and
wear-resistant pump, Kenshine-pump model: UHB-ZK, HFM, YSF and other pumps
Fluoroplastic pump
material introduction
(Excellent corrosion
resistance, wear resistance)
The called
tetrafluoride pump is not made of tetrafluoride material, tetrafluoride
material is not suitable to produce the pumps.
Fluorine plastics generally
refers to materials: such as: F46(FEP), F4, PFA, PVDF, F26, F50 and so on.
Materials are used to
manufacture pumps such as 1, polyperfluorinated ethylene propylene (F46/FEP),
2, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), 3, fluorine alloy (F50).
Polytetrafluoroethylene
PTFE (not used as pump material)
PTFE is also called as
Teflon, PTFE application temperature range of -200~+260℃. Decomposition temperature is 415℃
PTFE has excellent
corrosion resistance and heat resistance, in addition to molten metal lithium,
potassium, sodium, chlorine trifluoride, oxygen trifluoride at high
temperature, high flow rate of liquid fluorine, it can almost resist all
chemical media (including concentrated nitric acid and chloroazotic acid). It can be operated at 230~260℃ for a long
time, and its heat resistance exceeds that of most plastics. It has excellent electrical properties, anti
- viscosity and low friction coefficient.
The disadvantage is that it is expensive and difficult to process. On the other hand, the advantages of anti -
viscosity and anti - solvent complicate the lining process. PTFE is widely used as gaskets, sealing
rings, bearings and short tubes without lubricants, especially suitable for
high temperature, serious corrosion, and products (such as food and textiles)
are not allowed to be connected with lubricants. Also used as pipes, valves, pumps, towers and
linings. Hose (graphite powder added)
can be used to make heat exchangers. It
is also widely used in mechanical and electrical industry. Products in addition to plastic, but it is
also widely used as a coating and can also be made into fiber.
Polyperfluorinated
ethylene propylene F46/FEP (the most used material for corrosion resistant
pumps, IHF, FSB pumps, etc.)
Polyperfluorinated
ethylene propylene F46/FEP is a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and
hexafluoropropylene, therefore, also referred to as F-46. Excellent corrosion resistance, similar to
PTFE. In addition to a few media such as
molten alkali metal, fuming nitric acid, chlorine fluoride, almost all chemical
media (including concentrated nitric acid and aqua regia) corrosion. Temperature resistance is lower than PTFE, F46
can be used for a long time at 200℃. Excellent impact resistance, creep resistance
and dielectric properties. It is easier
to process than PTFE. The application range of F46 is -20~+140℃, and the
decomposition temperature is 316℃
Polyvinylidene fluoride
PVDF (CQF,QBY pump, etc.)
Polyvinylidene fluoride
PVDF has higher strength in fluorinated plastics. Wear resistance, low cold current effect,
excellent electrical insulation.
Corrosion resistance is good, but hydrogen atoms are retained in the
structure, so it is slightly worse than other plastics. It has good corrosion resistance to halogen,
halogenated hydrocarbon, strong oxidant, boiling acid, alkali and a variety of
organic solvents, but it has no corrosion resistance to fuming sulfuric acid,
concentrated heat sulfuric acid and nitric acid, ketone, ester, amine and high
temperature sulfonating agent above 90℃. The disadvantage of fluoride is that plastic
creep may occur under load
It is the only material
of fluorine plastics that can be made into hard tubes. PVDF is widely used in
chemical pipelines, pumps, valves, gaskets, linings and so on. PVDF Can also be
used as a coating. It is also widely
used in electrical equipment.
Fluoroplastic alloy
F50
Fluorine plastic alloy
(not metal alloy, is a mixture of two kinds of plastic) is made of F4 powder
and F46 powder, through the ratio, fully mixed, so that it is evenly stirred
together, and then through high temperature sintering, and hot-pressing
molding. It is a material developed in
the late 1980s. In order to save some costs, F4 which is not easy to process is
mixed with F46 to improve the performance of melt forming. F46 has good flow
performance under high temperature and can flow with F4. This material is named fluorine alloy. Fluorine alloy is more resistant to high
temperature than pure F46, higher strength, but its disadvantage is still more
difficult to shape, many workpieces are not made of fluorine alloy material,
therefore, the fluorine alloy pump we produce is not for the whole fluorine
alloy. F50 is suitable for the processing of some parts. Such as plastic pump body, centrifugal pump
impeller, pump cover and other simple components.
Ultra high molecular
weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) is a thermoplastic engineering plastic with
linear structure and excellent comprehensive properties. (Corrosion and wear resistance)
UHMWPE high molecular
weight (THE molecular weight of HDPE is usually only 20 ~ 300,000) gives its
excellent performance, UHMWPE belongs to the price is moderate, excellent
performance of thermoplastic engineering plastics, it almost focuses on the
advantages of all kinds of plastics,
With ordinary polyethylene and other engineering plastics incomparable
wear resistance, impact resistance, self-lubrication, corrosion resistance,
impact absorption, low temperature resistance, health and non-toxic, not easy
adhesion, not easy water absorption, small density and other comprehensive
properties
Wear resistance (UHMWPE has
the highest wear resistance of plastics and exceeds some metals)
Impact resistance (The impact
strength of UHMWPE is among the best among all engineering plastics)
Chemical resistance :UHMWPE has
excellent chemical resistance, in addition to strong oxidizing acid, in a
certain range of temperature and concentration of various corrosive media
(acid, alkali, salt) and organic media (except tea solvents).
Impact energy
absorption (UHMWPE has excellent impact energy absorption, impact energy absorption value
is the highest in all plastics, so the noise damping performance is very good,
with excellent chipping effect.)
Low temperature
resistance :UHMWPE has excellent low temperature resistance and
ductility at liquid helium temperature (-269℃), so it can be used as
a low temperature resistant component in the nuclear industry.
Hygienically non-toxic (UHMWPE is
hygienically non-toxic, fully compliant with the Standards of the Japan Health
Association and approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and THE US
Department of Agriculture for use in contact with food and drugs.)
Non-viscosity (UHMWPE
surface adsorption capacity is very weak, its anti-viscosity ability is second
only to PTFE in the plastic non-viscosity best, so the product surface and
other materials are not easy to stick.)
Low water absorption (UHMWPE
water absorption rate is very low;
Generally less than 0.01%, so in the molding process before the general
need not dry treatment.
