Do you need to find a PFAS free solution? LEHVOSS Compounds has specialized in developing tribologically optimized plastics since 1983, enhancing wear and friction characteristics by incorporating lubricants like graphite, silicone oil, and PTFE, a fluoropolymer classified as PFAS. Due to increasing regulations on PFAS, the industry is seeking alternatives. Since the 1990s, LEHVOSS has introduced non-PFAS-modified tribological compounds, successfully applied in various industries, using common polymers such as PA66, PA46, PBT, PPS, and PEEK, along with additives and nanotechnology, showcasing their expertise. ? Benefits over classical PTFE-modified compounds: Easier processing No PTFE deposits on tool surfaces Lower density [hence lower cost and weight] Enhanced mechanical properties Improved use in media [chemicals] ?
