PTFE Polytetrafluoroethylene materials
PTFE is an indispensable high-performance engineering material for modern industry, designed to provide high performance in the most extreme conditions. Known for its excellent chemical resistance, low coefficient of friction, excellent weathering ability, dielectric strength, thermal stability, flame retardancy and a wide range of service temperatures, PTFE resins are the material of choice in many industries. PTFE is used worldwide in a variety of applications such as bearings and seals, pipes and tubes, weather-resistant architectural coatings, high-quality cookware, automotive fuel hoses, gaskets, wire insulation and other complex applications, its flexible plasticity can be shaped in different product sizes.
PTFE has the following excellent properties:
-
Excellent electrical insulating properties: low dielectric constant and low losses
-
Self-lubricating: extremely low coefficient of friction
-
High/Low Temperature Resistance: Wide operating temperature ( -200°C to 250°C )
-
Weathering ability: Inherently UV resistant
-
Chemical Resistance: Excellent chemical resistance
-
Low smoke and flame resistance
-
