FLUOROPOLYMERS

Below is the information on main coating materials, if you are looking for specific ones, feel free to contact us for availability!
 
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene):

• Exceptional Non-Stick Properties: PTFE is widely recognized for its outstanding non-stick characteristics, making it ideal for applications where reducing friction is critical.
• High Chemical Resistance: PTFE coatings are highly resistant to a broad range of chemicals, ensuring durability in corrosive environments.
• Temperature Stability: PTFE maintains its properties across a wide temperature range, from cryogenic conditions to extremely high temperatures, making it suitable for diverse industrial applications.
• Low Friction: The low coefficient of friction offered by PTFE makes it an excellent choice for reducing wear and tear in moving parts.
• Applications: PTFE coatings are commonly used in cookware, mold release applications, industrial machinery, and chemical processing equipment.

FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene):

• Smooth, Non-Porous Surface: FEP coatings provide a smooth, non-porous finish, which enhances their non-stick properties and makes cleaning easier.
• Excellent Chemical Resistance: FEP is resistant to almost all industrial chemicals, making it suitable for use in harsh chemical environments.
• High Transparency: FEP coatings are optically clear, which can be advantageous in applications requiring visibility, such as in certain types of instrumentation.
• Flexibility: FEP retains its flexibility at low temperatures and has a good balance of mechanical properties, which makes it suitable for dynamic applications.
• Applications: FEP coatings are used in wire and cable insulation, chemical processing equipment, and as a protective coating for sensitive instruments.

PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy):

• High Temperature Resistance: PFA coatings can withstand higher temperatures than FEP, making them suitable for applications involving extreme heat.
• Superior Chemical Resistance: Like PTFE and FEP, PFA offers excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including strong acids and bases.
• Excellent Non-Stick Properties: PFA provides non-stick performance similar to PTFE, with the added benefit of being easier to process and apply as a coating.
• Good Mechanical Strength: PFA coatings offer improved mechanical strength compared to PTFE, providing enhanced durability in demanding environments.
• Applications: PFA coatings are ideal for use in semiconductor manufacturing, chemical processing equipment, and any application where a combination of high temperature resistance and chemical stability is required.
