Fomblin PFPE Fluids – Vacuum Pump Oils | Fluorinated Polymers
Fomblin Y grades are perfluorinated polyether inert fluids for use as lubricants in vacuum pumps. Fomblin PFPE fluids are a mixture of fluorinated polymers obtained by a photochemical process that begins with hexafluoropropylene. Since the Fomblin PFPE chemical chain contains only carbon, fluorine and oxygen atoms, these fluids have exceptional properties such as:
