PFAS-FREE Release Film for Silicone Adhesive
About PFAS
PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic organic fluorinated compounds containing carbon and fluorine, with an estimated 10,000 different types.
Representative examples include PFOS (Perfluorooctane Sulfonate) and PFOA (Perfluorooctanoic Acid).
These substances have excellent heat and chemical resistance, as well as hydrophobic properties, and are widely used in various fields of society.
However, certain types of PFAS are known to persist in the environment and do not degrade naturally.
Once ingested by organisms, they can accumulate in the body and cause adverse effects. Due to these reasons, PFAS are often referred to as "Forever Chemicals.
" Restrictions on the manufacture, use, and export of PFAS, primarily PFOS and PFOA, are gradually being strengthened worldwide.
Product Overview
With increasing societal and voluntary regulations on organic fluorinated compounds (PFAS), the demand for alternative products is growing.
fluorine-based release films used for silicone adhesives and mainly develops non-silicone type products.
