- ● Exceptional high-temperature performance:
- ● -25 °C up to +327 °C (some grades to +340 °C)
- ● Extremely low outgassing and particle generation
- ● Excellent compression set resistance
Applications:
- ● Semiconductor wafer processing (etch, deposition, plasma)
- ● Pharmaceutical and biotech production
- ● Aggressive chemical sealing
- ● High-vacuum systems
FFKM (Perfluoroelastomer):FFKM is an advanced rubber material offering the highest chemical and temperature resistance among elastomers. It can withstand over 1,800 chemicals and continuous temperatures up to +327°C, making it ideal for semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and aggressive chemical processing.
