Fluorosurfactant Replacement
Reformulation Expertise and Coating Assessmentt
PFAS and other “forever chemicals” are under regulatory scrutiny due to their environmental persistence and toxicity to humans.
Fluorosurfactants have been a key additive in coating and adhesive formulations for decades, particularly in aqueous coatings.
Carestream has spent years proactively eliminating perfluoro additives from our coating products, protective varnishes, and pressure sensitive adhesives. We have extensive experience identifying and formulating with non-fluorinated alternative surfactants at the lab-scale, scaling them into production, and assessing their impact on product performance.
We welcome the opportunity to apply our experience and suite of coating and testing capabilities to help you develop safer and more sustainable products.
