“…The test was practically done by processing raw milk for 8 h then the coating was analyzed for a reduction in fouling. Results were shown that the fouling formation was reduced on the heat exchanger plates and it was concluded that the technique is much used in the reduction of foul accumulation [66].…”

High-performance commodity polymers are in demand due to low cost, durability, easy productivity, and recycling ability. This article comprises a survey on the performance properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fluoropolymer. It is a well-known choice for coatings, insulation, thermal sealing, lubrication, bearings, and clinical applications. PTFE was engineered in many forms as a function of loading nano and micro fillers for different purposes and the improved properties and performance were addressed by the researchers. Hence, we disclosed the various casting routes of PTFE which is feasible for reliable processing to serve in domestic and industrial applications.

“…These polymer coatings have been applied to a range of different surfaces and equipment to investigate the fouling of a number of different food related compounds. Low energy polymer coatings were found to have a reduced level of starch adhesion than stainless steel [2]. Polymer coatings have also been identified as being able to limit mineral adhesion on heat exchangers [69].…”

“…The low surface energy of these polymers is likely to be the reason for their ability to reduce the level of particle adhesion on a surface [34]. A number of different polymers have been utilised as a coating material including, Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) [66], Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) [2], polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) [67] and polyurethane [68]. These polymer coatings have been applied to a range of different surfaces and equipment to investigate the fouling of a number of different food related compounds.…”

“…Thus the contact angle can be used as a means to measure the surface free energy of a material [33]. This can be calculated using the equation below [40]: (2) Low energy surfaces tend to be hydrophobic, as surface free energy can be used as measure to the degree to which water can be adsorbed to a surface [33]. Metals have high surface energies while polymers tend to have a low surface energy [41].…”

“…However, stainless steel is prone to fouling due to its relatively high surface energy and hydrophilic nature [2]. In order to combat the effects of fouling, a number of different techniques have been explored to reduce/eliminate adhesion of compounds to a surface.…”

Abstract.There are three different factors that can affect adhesion: the process fluid, the processing conditions and the surface of the processing equipment. Of these three factors, the surface properties of the processing equipment are the factor that offers the greatest opportunity for manipulation. The two key surface properties that have been identified to reduce adhesion are the surface energy and the surface topography. The surface energy of a material determines its degree of wettability and, a surface's affinity for water. In previous studies the surface energy of materials have been leveraged in order to create a surface with reduced levels of fouling through surface modification or the addition of polymer coatings with varying degrees of hydrophobicity. In addition, the topography of surfaces has been modified to reduce the level of particle adhesion. These modifications involve creating either a structured or random porous microstructure on the surface. Additional methods identified to reduce fouling include the application of liquid infused porous surfaces at low shear conditions and the use of non-contact heating through techniques such as microwave processing.
