Because perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances are extremely stable chemicals, almost completely non degradable, and can accumulate in the environment, animals, and humans, they are also known as eternal chemicals. PFAS can damage the human immune system and is associated with related diseases and cancers, even affecting the development of adolescents.

The reason for the EU’s PSS ban may be related to the industry chain. Global floating mineral resources are mainly distributed in Mexico, China, South Africa, Mongolia, and Spain, accounting for approximately 61% of the world’s total reserves. Among them, Mexico has the largest reserves, accounting for 24.3%, and China accounts for 19%.

The global fluorine chemical industry is mainly concentrated in the Asia Pacific region, accounting for over 51%, and North America, accounting for 25%. The industrial chain has little to do with the European Union, which may also be one of the reasons for the rapid introduction of the fluorine ban. DFAS has outstanding hydrophobic and oleophobic properties due to its strong ability to reduce resistance tension, as well as its super weather and high temperature resistance under extreme conditions, and insulation performance, among others.

It is also frequently used in coatings. There are several types of PFAS fluorinated products involved in coatings, including fluororesins such as PTFE, PVDF, PFEVE, etc., which mainly involve high temperature resistance, super weather resistance, chemical resistance, and other fields. Secondly, it is fluorinated wax slurry, such as polytetrafluoroethylene wax slurry, which provides properties such as wear resistance, scratch resistance, and slip resistance.

The third is fluorine-containing leveling agents, including fluorocarbon modified acrylic leveling agents, both high fluorine and low fluorine content. In addition, there are fluorosilicone leveling agents.

The fourth type is fluorine-containing defoamers. We are also committed to research and development, replacing products containing perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances with more environmentally friendly alternatives. For example, regarding PVDF. The silicone resin we have developed has super strong weather resistance.

After a whole year of QUV testing in our laboratory, including UVA and UVB, we conducted half a year of testing and found that the △ E color difference was only 0.19. At the same time, the product has excellent insulation properties and can withstand voltage surges of over 10000 volts, making it suitable for use in battery pack coatings.

For fluorine-containing leveling agents, our developed products use some special functional groups, and PFAS free can replace traditional fluorine-containing leveling agents. We are also actively developing and testing products such as fluorine-containing defoamers.
