Coatings & Surface treatments

Polytetrafluoroethylene, shortly PTFE, coating has a non-stick function. The standard (S) coating has a thickness of +/- 30µm. Optionally (T) 80µm is possible but will influence the accuracy with low span measurements. For special material applications and for BRF seals a special version is available with a standard thickness. The Low Cure (LC) option takes care of the heat influences caused during the application of the coating.

Perfluoroalkoxy, shortly PFA coating has predominantly a non-stick function. The corrosion resistance is generally better than PTFE, as its structure is less permeable.  Optionally (T) 80µm is available, but this will influence the accuracy. The PFA enhanced (E) version has special fillers to enhance the corrosion resistance.

Gold is one of the noblest materials. As such, providing a thin layer of gold to a base metal will provide protection against hydrogen permeation. To protect the Diaphragm Seal against the permeation of H+ ions through the diaphragm foil, Badotherm offers a layer of 25µm or even 40µm a thickness of gold.

Silver electroplating is a chemical technique that involves covering the diaphragm made of AISI316L with a thin layer of Silver. This thin layer up to 40 microns is an excellent wear resistant plating.

Tantaline® products consist of a core substrate (typically stainless steel) which is treated to create an extremely rugged, uniform, inert and corrosion resistant tantalum surface. Tantaline® can be applied on lower parts, flush accessories or valves.

Thermal spraying is a technology which improves the surface of metal product. Thermal spray provides resistance to: Wear, erosion, cavitation, corrosion, abrasion or heat. For Badotherm products it can be applied on thermowells used under severe abrasive conditions. Materials like Stellite or Alloy 625 can be applied. For seal the BF flanged seals mounted can be protected by thermal sprayed aluminium (TSA). This TSA is applied in offshore applications.

The virgin PTFE lining is a common used protection against aggressive media such as chloride. The lining is a chemical resistant solution because of it’s thickness of 1mm.  The lining is shaped into a solid stainless steel part that can be fixed to the process band give the strength up to higher pressure ratings.

The virgin PTFE sheet is mostly used at US, USL and USM type of seals as the sheet should be clamped. The sheet is applied together with fluorinated oil to keep the foil in its place in case of disassembly. The sheet is for anti-stick because of the limited thickness of 0.1mm. The foil is in accordance with FDA 21 CFR 177.1550. Virgin PTFE foil cannot be used on vacuum applications.
