When it comes to the seal industry, the semiconductor market is well known as one where the most premium, chemical-resistant compounds are a necessity. Microelectronic manufacturing processes involve chemistries that push the limits of what elastomeric compounds can withstand in terms of both chemical aggressiveness and variety. The perfluorinated materials (FFKM) capable of withstanding these environments require intricate manufacturing processes regulated by closely-guarded trade secrets and the significant investment of resources. Parker O-Ring & Engineered Seals Division offers a variety of FFKM and HiFluor materials, offering elite performance and alternatives for cost saving when applicable. 

Extreme Environment Sealing

FFKM Sealing Solutions for Critical Environments

To meet the crucial sealing demands of the life sciences industry, Parker offers a broad selection of specialty elastomers. Choosing the right material is vital to safeguard patient health, prompting the FDA to establish a standard (21 CFR 177.2600) that specifies the acceptable rubber compound ingredients and extractibles based on their toxicity and carcinogenicity. Typically, for patient-contact applications, a material that meets US Pharmacopeia (USP) Class VI and/or ISO 10993/3 is required.
