Life sciences

Characteristically, fluorochemical products are used not only in industrial products but also for life sciences. Fluoro materials contribute to the development of medical devices and drug discovery via their excellent chemical resistance, lubricity and cleanliness, and fluorine-containing intermediates.

INDUSTRY TRENDS

Various fluorine-containing compounds enhance the efficacy of pharmaceuticals and pesticides. In addition, as a high level of purity is required for the pharmaceutical manufacturing process, fluoropolymers are used in fluid transport equipment and control devices.  Lastly, as medical devices must withstand the use of strong sterilants, the chemical resistance of fluoro materials is necessary.

APPLICATIONS

Drugs

Medicine
