    • Versiv PTFE diagraphm: Ultraflex

    Used in the most demanding high-pressure applications, Versiv Ultraflex is an unmatched PTFE solution for the highest flex life requirements and permeation resistance.
    Ultraflex is a Versiv Multimaterial Composite made from premium high molecular weight fluoropolymer resins, via specialised surface treatments and our proprietary process. It has all the benefits of regular PTFE composites, plus enhanced flex resistance, especially for high-pressure requirements.

    Main benefits of Versiv Ultraflex for pump diaphragms:

    High chemical resistance:

    ‍PTFE composites highly resistant to chemicals, acids, and solvents. This makes them ideal for use in pumps that handle aggressive chemicals or corrosive materials.
    It is also resistant to hydrolysis, making it suitable for use in humid environments.

    High-temperature resistance:

    Versiv Ultraflex is non-flammable/ fire resistan and has excellent high-temperature resistance. It is thermally stable from -200°C to 260°C (-328°F to 500°F) without degradation, making it suitable for use in pumps that handle hot fluids.

    Flexibility and Durability:

    Versiv Ultraflex is thermally weldable and has superior flexibility, allowing for diaphragms that are thin and durable. It is also resistant to tearing and abrasion, which helps prolong their lifespan.

    Reduced permeation:

    Reducing permeation is about equipment reliability.
    Versiv Ultraflex allows for both the protection of equipment and environment, and the reduction of leakage and media loss.

    Smoother flow:

    PTFE materials have a very low coefficient of friction, which means they do not stick to other materials easily.
    This leads to time, materials and energy savings through the low friction & easy release properties. It also makes them ideal for use in pumps that handle viscous or sticky fluids.

    • Non-stick release LVT belt solutions

    In today’s flooring market, Luxury Vinyl Tiles (LVT) are an increasingly popular cost-effective solution for commercial and residential buildings. The broad range of LVT finishes — which can resemble wood, tile and slate — means manufacturers must be adept at meeting the growing demand for various customer tastes.

    Versiv PTFE coated belts and sheets work as release solutions for double belt press lamination in luxury vinyl tile manufacturing

    Versiv PTFE release solutions enable roll-to-roll processing of LVT manufacturing due to its ability to withstand high pressure (up to 10 Bar / 150 PSI) and elevated temperatures (up to 260°C / 500°F)  conditions associated with the lamination process.

    Mechanically durable, with consistent “easy release” properties, the Versiv process conveyor belts provide longevity, high production efficiency, and a reduction in manufacturing downtime. They also eliminate the need for silicone sprays and release agents, which are costly and time-consuming.

    Versiv PTFE belts can be configured for every type of machine and are available with 2 ply options, such as an anti-static machine-facing ply and/or textured surface to assist in off-gassing during lamination. They feature a low-profile seam that does not increase thickness and enables no “mark-off” or imprint at the joint.

    Pump problems solved with Versiv Ultraflex:

    • Premature failure due to PTFE rupture has been solved by the exceptional flex-life performance.
    • Diaphragm delamination caused by bad etching, unsteady bonding quality to rubber and media permeation that destroys bonding/rubber has been overcome by higher quality sodium ammonia etching on a Flex Barrier constructed from a low permeation rate laminate with a barrier enhancement process. The result is excellent bonding with a significantly reduced stretch void index and a 30% reduction in permeation.
    • Contamination attributable to a diaphragm’s rough surface hasbeen eliminated by the smooth inert surface of the barrier.
    • For deep drawing manufacturing issues, where the problem’s root cause is stiff and heterogeneous material, the high quality and flexibility of these barrier films removes cause for concern.

    Non-stick release LVT belt solutions

    Versiv food compliant Release Solutions are effective productivity aids that consistently deliver quality food from production to grilling, baking, and vacuum drying processes. Because of their non-stick processing surface, our PTFE coated processing belts and PTFE release sheets deliver a clean, consistent and long-lasting release surface, resolving issues with cleaning, sticking and contamination of food and dried ingredients. With fewer unplanned stoppages for clean-downs associated with sticking issues - consistent production, improved productivity and cost effectiveness is achievable.

    What can be made with
    Versiv PTFE Release Solutions?

    Wide range of LVT with numerous finishes that can resemble many types of wood, tile, slate, etc.
