Description
This is a self-contained collection of data and information on applications of fluoropolymers components for corrosion control in chemical
processing industries. Due to their superior properties, fluoropolymers have been rapidly replacing metal alloys for preserving the purity
of processing streams in the chemical processing, plastics, food, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, and pulp and paper industries.
Audience
Design engineers, maintenance personnel, chemical engineers, other practicing chemical professionals, materials managers, purchasing professionals,
researchers and students in the chemical processing, petroleum refining, food, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, and pulp and paper industries
interested in the industrial applications of fluoropolymers. Equipment managers, chemical plant operators, chemical industry engineers
in metals and plastics industries.
