Maximizing Flow and Ensuring Leak Tightness Through Design and Development of a Unidirectional Check Valve
Abstract: The check valve market, valued at USD 6.5 billion in 2024, is expected to grow at a 4.1% CAGR. Challenges in valve seat materials, particularly SS304 and PTFE (Teflon), contribute to a 0.5% leak rate, which leads to helium gas loss, reduced efficiency, and higher operational costs. While various sealing techniques, including hard-on-soft methods, have been explored, few have been applied to poppet check valves. This study focuses on improving …
