gases at low temperature
In order to guarantee best performances to the compressors, piston rings and bearing guides made up of
various PTFE compounds are largely used, replacing traditional materials like cast iron, graphite and stratified
structured materials. Pure PTFE chemical inertness makes this material suitable for all the applications where
high chemical resistance is required in presence of almost technical gases and fluids. Exemptions exist in
presence of alkaline metals in the molten state, fluorides and fluoridric acid in the gaseous state, and
some fluorocarbons at high temperatures and pressures. PTFE piston rings and guide bearings can be used
at temperatures up to 260C, depending on the system pressure and piston speed this temperature limit
value should be lowered. In order to improve wear resistance and to rise the working temperature limit
