Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is probably the best known of the fluoropolymers.
PTFE's wide range of properties include:
-
Virtually inert (it has an outstanding resistance to the majority of chemicals)
-
A continuous working temperature range of -260deg C to +260deg C
-
Low coefficient of friction
-
UV resistance
It is frequently used in the chemical and petro-chemical industries with proven success.
PTFE is FDA approved and widely used in the food and pharmaceutical sectors.
