Aculon® Introduces AcuFlow® 7: The World’s Leading Repellency Nanocoating Technology

San Diego, CA, 2024-Nov-10 — /EPR Network/ — Aculon, Inc., a global leader in surface modification technologies, is thrilled to announce the launch of AcuFlow® 7, its newest best-in-class repellency nanocoating technology. Designed to transform oil flow applications, AcuFlow® 7 offers an effective coating process that prevents both organic and inorganic deposits from adhering to surfaces, significantly increasing yield and throughput while drastically reducing the need for maintenance and cleaning processes.

AcuFlow® 7 represents a major advancement in the field of water and oil flow assurance coatings. Utilizing patented proprietary surface technologies that enable the polymeric coating to chemically bond to metal, glass and plastic surfaces, AcuFlow® 7 drastically reduces surface fouling and modifying surfaces to repel both organic (paraffins, asphaltenes, etc.) and inorganic scales. This polymer-based treatment is an improvement upon existing monolayer technologies which are limited to metal oxide surfaces. This new technology provides long-lasting protection and performance enhancements on a much wider variety of surfaces, making it an essential solution for the oil & gas industry.

Key Features and Benefits of AcuFlow® 7:

• Repellency Properties: Repels both inorganic and organic materials. This prevents oil and inorganic scale buildup and the accumulation of sludge, paraffins, and asphaltenes on treated metal parts.
• Durable and Long-Lasting: Offers a thickness range of 20 to 1000 nm and is stable in high Reynolds number flow rates, with excellent resistance to produced water and oil ensuring durability in oil & gas environments.
• Enhanced Flow and Efficiency: By reducing fouling in piping, AcuFlow® 7 improves oil flow and operational efficiency, leading to increased throughput and yield
• Chemical Resistance: Resistant to nearly all liquid chemicals, providing robust protection and longevity for treated parts.
• Optically Clear and Heat Transfer Neutral: AcuFlow® 7 is optically clear and has little to no impact on heat transfer depending on the thickness, making it suitable for a wide range of applications without altering the physical properties of the treated surfaces.
• Simplified Maintenance: By preventing buildup and contamination, AcuFlow® 7 eliminates the need for routine cleaning, reducing maintenance costs and increasing operational uptime.
• Multi-surface Application: By allowing a broad range substrates to be modified, this new technology allows for much broader adoption within the oil and gas industry.

“AcuFlow® 7 is a game-changer for the oil & gas industry, offering a superior solution with world class repellency that significantly reduces operational costs,” said Eric Bruner, CEO of Aculon, Inc. “We are proud to introduce this advanced technology, which reflects our commitment to innovation and excellence in surface modification.”

Aculon® continues to push the boundaries of surface coating technologies, ensuring that its products remain at the forefront of the industry. With the introduction of AcuFlow® 7, Aculon® reaffirms a position as a leader in providing cutting-edge solutions for the most challenging industrial applications.
