Lubricants that support operational safety<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In the chemical processing industry, raw materials undergo chemical conversion and are transformed into finished products. The industry’s output is very broad and includes the production of organic and inorganic chemicals, plastics, synthetic fibers and rubbers, and petrochemicals. The processes used to complete the required chemical conversion often involve extreme temperatures, volatile compounds, aggressive chemicals and reactive gases, creating an environment in which it is difficult to maintain adequate lubrication. Krytox<\/a> lubricants are used in valves, fans, pumps, motors, centrifuges, reactors and other chemical industry components because they offer compatibility with polymers in seals, O-rings and valves, as well as extending equipment life and reducing maintenance.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”20px” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][image_with_animation image_url=”28459″ image_size=”full” animation_type=”entrance” animation=”None” animation_movement_type=”transform_y” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”” border_radius=”20px” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n

Ensure safety when exposed to reactive gases with high-performance lubricants<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Conventional industrial lubric<\/a> ants containing mineral oils and some synthetic lubricants can react with oxygen or halogens such as chlorine, fluorine and bromine, causing catastrophic accidents. Reactive gas applications require lubricants that prevent accidents and ensure safety. Although the risk of explosion, fire, lubricant deterioration and equipment failure is always possible, Krytox NRT (nonreactive) oils and greases can help avoid problems such as:<\/p>\n
