Carbon-Filled Wear- and Chemical-Resistant Slippery PTFE

- Color: Gray
- Temperature Range: -325° to 500° F
- Tensile Strength: 1,000 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: Not Rated
- Hardness: Durometer 60D-70D (Medium)
- For Use Outdoors: Yes
Filled with carbon and graphite, these naturally slippery PTFE sheets stand up to wear better than standard PTFE. Often fabricated into wear rings, wear pads, and rotational bearings, they resist expanding and maintain their strength when exposed to heat.
High-Temperature Acid-Resistant Silicon-Carbide Ceramic Foam

- Color: Gray
- Maximum Temperature: 3,000° F
- Compressive Strength: 200 psi
A silicon carbide coating over a carbon foam base combines the hardness, chemical resistance, and high temperatures silicon carbide is known for with the lightweight versaitility of foam. It’s often used for cores in composite layers and to filter molten metal and corrosive liquids.
The silicon carbide coating acts as a thermal conductor, transferring heat to quickly cool liquids that pass through. Known for its hardness, silicon carbide won’t break down from repeated abrasion. However, because it’s so hard, this material is more brittle than plain carbon foam and less impact resistant than balsa wood, PET, and PVC foam cores.
Acids and bases can’t penetrate the silicon carbide coating, even at high temperatures. Instead, contaminants stick to the surface, making it a great filter for corrosive liquids and environmental pollutants such as exhaust. If using this material as a filter, choose a foam with more pores per inch for a slower flow rate, and a foam with fewer pores per inch for a faster flow rate.
If you cut this material, the underlying carbon foam is exposed. Carbon foam does not have the temperature range and chemical resistance of its silicon carbide coating, so it will break down more quickly at exposed points.

Porous Conductive Carbon



- Color: Gray
- Max. Temperature: 600° F
- Tensile Strength: See table
- Electrical Properties: Conductive
- Surface Resistivity: See table
Often used in filtering, this brittle, glass-like carbon has pores that allow fluid and air to flow through. Its low surface resistivity also makes it a good electrical conductor. This material is also temperature and chemical resistant.

Ultra-Efficiency Odor-Removal Panel Air Filters

Clear the air of fine particles and odors caused by high levels of pollution, such as wildfire smoke. Rated MERV 13, these filters capture smaller contaminants, such as germs and allergens, more efficiently than filters rated MERV 5 or 7. They contain carbon granules, which absorb odors. All meet UL 900 standards for flame retardance.
