As a leader at the forefront of the FKM industry, Chemours Advanced Performance Materials is pioneering the development of a nonfluorinated surfactant for the production of fluoroelastomers using Advanced Polymer Architecture (APA) technology.
The Chemours Company, a global chemistry company with leading market positions in titanium technologies, thermal and specialized solutions, and advanced performance materials, recently announced they will offer their Viton™ FWRD APA fluoroelastomers using a nonfluorinated surfactant. With this process innovation, Chemours can now manufacture its entire Viton™ fluoroelastomers portfolio using a nonfluorinated surfactant.
As part of Chemours’s commitment to being a responsible supplier, the company continually invests in its ability to offer a steady supply of its leading fluoroelastomers to the market in an ever-evolving regulatory landscape. Furthermore, the new Viton™ FWRD APA fluoroelastomers have equivalent performance to the current APA-grade fluoroelastomer products.
