Abstract: Provided is a shaft seal device provided with a seal member which possesses excellent liquid tightness, small friction resistance and high wear resistance. In a shaft seal device which is arranged around the periphery of a shaft which is supported in a rotatable manner or in a reciprocating manner, and is provided with a seal member for securing liquid tightness around the shaft, the seal member is formed of a porous body formed by using a hydrophilic polymer resin in which chains are cross-linked. The shaft seal device is also characterized in that: the shaft is a shaft which extends between a liquid phase region and a gas phase region; the seal member is a seal member which suppresses a leakage of a liquid to the gas phase region from the liquid phase region; and an aqueous lubricant which is prepared by adding a water soluble thickening agent is impregnated into the seal member.

Abstract: A rotary seal comprising: a shaft with a chromium oxide coating provided at a seal contact area; wherein said coating has a hardness of at least 55 Rockwell-C. The coating may have a surface roughness parameter (Ra) of between 0.2 and 0.4 circular. The coating may have a thickness of at least 0.1 mm. The coating layer forms part of a rotary seal with a flexible seal element that is biased into contact with the surface of the coating. The flexible seal element may be biased against the shaft by a spring to increase the pressure of the flexible seal element against the coating. The coating is preferably deposited by a plasma spray process.

Abstract: A gland packing having required characteristics is obtained by finding relationships between required characteristics and the value of the limiting oxygen index, and adequately defining the level of the required characteristics. The gland packing is configured by twisting or braiding a single or plurality of yarns that are formed by twisting fibers having a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 21 to 30, preferably 22 to 26. The fibers contain fibers in which a flat ratio is defined as 1.1 to 4, the flat ratio being a value which is obtained by dividing the maximum value of an interval between two parallel straight lines in a state where a section of each of the fibers is interposed between the straight lines, by the minimum value. The fibers contain fibers in each of which a sectional shape has one or more recesses having a depth of 0.4 μm or more.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a fluid or liquid barrier packing system which is adapted to minimize VOC emissions, while also providing live-loading and continuous load monitoring functions. The components of the packing system (including the liquid barrier) are adapted to be installed in a traditional stuffing box of a valve utilizing a top entry method, and without the necessity of having to inject the liquid through any side ports of the valve. The packing system reduces leakage levels as required by low emission leakage specifications by creating a reverse osmosis effect, limiting the diffusivity of a gas through the packing elements of the system. Thus, the packing system of the present invention provides a simplified method to load and monitor a barrier in the stuffing box of the valve to slightly higher pressure than processed fluid pressure.
