In chemical industry, reliability,security and corrosion resistance are all uncompromising. Equipment exposed to strong acids, strong alkalis and solvents must keep continuously stable operation. This makes the selection of fluid valve and pumps critical--they are the cornerstone of leak-free,durable and high-efficiency chemical processing systems. Fluoropolymer lined pump valve become the industry’s No.1 choice.
During wafer fabrication, some highly corrosive chemicals include HCI, HF, HNO₃, H₂SO₄are often involved in cleaning and etching process. These chemicals have streme corrosivity, the common materials such as stainless steel, engineering plastics can’t resist such harsh chemicals,as a result,they will suffer corrosion and swelling, perforation damage, further shortening semiconductor equipment service life. In addition,if the pipeline, valves, tanks precipitate metal ion and contaminants, this will directly cause wafer scrapping, the losses is incalculable.
In architectural membrane structures, semiconductors, new energy batteries and chemical anti-corrosion and other sectors,ETFE, PVDF and ECTFE are widely adopted. All three fluoropolymers are renowned for excellent corrosion resistance, weatherability and electrical insulation properties; However, there are many failed cases caused by wrong fluoropolymer selection n practical projects.
Recently, the domestic substitution of fluoropolymers for semiconductors and the expansion of liquid cooling computing infrastructure have continuously unlocked growth potential for China’s high-end fluorochemical sectors.
As computing power upgrades accelerate, low-carbon development has become an industry imperative! From June 3 to 5, the 12th Shanghai International Data Center Industry Exhibition (IDCE 2026) was grandly held at Shanghai New International Expo Center. The Expo focused on the core development demands including high-density AI computing power, low energy consumption and intelligent operation, it gathered leading enterprises across the full industrial chain. Covering cutting-edge sectors such as immersion cooling, energy conservation & consumption reduction, and intelligent operation & maintenance.
As the EU’s PFAS-free regulations evolve from scattered clauses into a comprehensive, cross-industry regulatory framework, this family of so-called "forever chemicals" has landed right in the eye of a regulatory storm. For the fluorochemical industry, this is far more than an environmental compliance assessment; it is set to reshape the value distribution landscape of the global fluorochemical industrial chain.
ECTFE is an alternating copolymer of ethylene and chlorotrifluoroethylene at a molar ratio of 1:1. As a high-performance material, it features outstanding corrosion resistance, heat resistance and mechanical properties. This translucent semi-crystalline polymer is widely used in industries requiring high-performance materials, including chemical engineering, semiconductors, medical care and aerospace.
In the past years, this exhibition mainly focus on solar-storage integration, new-generation batteries and high-efficiency modules. However the spotlights this year are energy storage and AI-enabled new energy solutions.
PVDF sheet can be extruded by PVDF resin at high temperature, as an extremely pure polymer, there is no additives such as UV stabilizers, thermal stabilizers, plasticizers, lubricants or flame retardants. PVDF sheet can be welded to make tanks and processing equipment through PVDF welding rod, to store all kinds of chemical solutions.
In this industrial boom, fluoropolymers PVDF and PTFE stand as key auxiliary materials for both wet and dry electrode processes, with their value fully proven at CIBF 2026.
PVDF remains the primary binder for wet processing, featuring excellent resistance to electrolyte corrosion and stable cycling performance.
