Fluoroplastics
(PTFE, PVDF (Kynar®, Solef®), Rulon®, FEP, ETFE, Tefzel®, PCTFE Kel-F®, Neoflon™ CTFE)

  • A class of parraffinic polymers with some or all of the hydrogen replaced with flourine.

  • Standard Grades:
    PTFE most common -400 F to 500 F
    PVDF - (Kynar®, Solef®) mechanically strong and tough, temperature -80 F to 300 F
    Rulon® filled PTFE high wear and better mechanical properties
    FEP - better clarity than PTFE, temperature to 400 F
    ETFE - (Tefzel®) greater strength and stiffness than PTFE, temperature 300 F
    PCTFE has the lowest out gassing, temperature -400 F to 400 F

  • Key Features:
    Excellent chemical resistance, low coefficient of friction and high wear, high and low temperature resistance -400 F to 500 F, resistance to weathering, good electrical properties.

  • Fabricating:
    Machines easily, hard to bond.

  • Applications:
    Food equipment, high purity semiconductor processing, chemical processing equipment, nuclear waste processing, seals, piston rings, gaskets, bushings, bearings, slide bearings.
