Special Applications

Compound formulations meeting food and pharma regs including FDA a-f, USP VI, 3A c.1, WRAS, ADI. Criticality: control of allowable gasket intrusion in process flow. Key is finding optimal balance between excess flow intrusion (pressure drop, turbulance, flow restriction) and negative intrusion (gap contaminant buildup).
