Germany’s Fraunhofer launches PFAS-free elastomer project

Fraunhofer's ‘HATE-FLUOR’ project aims to replace PFAS-based fluoroelastomers with high-performance, fluorine-free alternatives. Experts at LBF and IFAM are developing thermally stable elastomers and protective coatings to serve industries like medical, semiconductor, and chemical tech. The 3-year project is funded under the PREPARE program.
