Abstract (English)	Current sealing materials for reciprocating gas compressors rely on the use of PTFE for good sealing performance. We aim at developing PTFE-free sealing compounds that accommodate both low- and high-pressure compression regimes, providing sustainable solutions for the clean energy transition.
