Halar® (ECTFE) coating: high-performance corrosion protection
Halar® (ECTFE coating) is a technical fluoropolymer known for its chemical resistance and robustness. It is particularly suitable when your equipment is exposed to aggressive environments (acids, bases, solvents) with mechanical stresses (abrasion, turbulence, handling).
At Xtrem Coatings, we tailor the solution to your actual use (chemistry, temperature, immersion, abrasion), then apply the coating using a controlled process, with quality controls.
High chemical resistance
Excellent resistance to numerous acids, bases, and solvents (validated according to concentration and temperature), offering outstanding corrosion resistance. In the semiconductor industry, the Halar® coating is particularly valued for its high purity. It helps maintain contaminant-free environments.
Mechanical robustness
The hardness of the Halar® coating is a major advantage for industrial applications requiring increased resistance to impact and abrasion. This characteristic ensures that treated equipment maintains its structural integrity even in demanding environments, thus extending its lifespan and operational efficiency.
Durability under immersion
In the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, Halar® is used for its exceptional properties in various industrial applications. Its ability to withstand corrosive environments makes it a preferred choice for ensuring process safety and efficiency.
Technical data:
Operating temperature ≈ 150°C continuous (peak ≈ 160°C)
Applied thicknesses 300–500 µm (standard)
500–800µm (severe)
800–1000+ µm (thick thickness)
Mechanical resistance: Good abrasion/impact resistance (depending on use), appreciated rigidity
Excellent chemical resistance in many environments (to be confirmed depending on fluid, concentration, temperature)
Xtrem Coatings Capacity : Processing of parts up to 12 m (depending on geometry)
Important point: sizing
The performance of the Halar® coating depends on the thickness, surface preparation and polymerization cycle, but also on the preparation of the product.
We recommend the version and thickness according to your actual conditions (chemistry + temperature + immersion + abrasion).
