PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) PTFE is produced in the process of suspension or emulsion polymerization of TFE. As a result of this process is the dispersion or powder, which can modify the profiles, fibers, film or a surface coating, or they can be used as an impregnant and efficiency additive in the production of other materials. Synthesis of PTFE was patented in 1956 by DuPont, but the patent has long expired. Currently, the PTFE material is commonly produced by many global manufacturers, who sell them under its own proprietary brands, such as Tarflen, Fluon, Teflon, Halon, etc. Properties of PTFE PTFE is an easy and safe to use plastic. Elements of PTFE can be easily treated with conventional mechanical machines and tools for working metal or wood. Key characteristics of PTFE are: * Wide operating temperature range from -270 to +260 ° C, decomposes only above 340 ° C. * PTFE is infusible, non-flammable and self extinguishing according to UL 94 V-0 class. * High shock and vibration phenomenon of lack of abrasive (stick-slip effect). * Resistance to aging, UV, IR, sunlight and weather. * Resistance to nearly all chemical agents and solvents in the range 0-14pH, with the exception of liquid sodium and calcium fluoride and hot links. * Very good insulation properties, low core losses, high breakdown strength and electrical arc. * Low friction coefficient of 0.05 and excellent anti-adhesive and plain, not stuck, and separates. * The possibility of sterilization and use in contact with foodstuffs, the total absence of water absorption. * Large capacity for change in ownership of modifying additives. Product range: Available range takes into account the diversity of applications of PTFE in the industry and service equipment. The size range includes both ranges of normative and specific customer needs. * Sheets and plates in sizes up to 1,8 x1, 8 m, thickness 0.5-100mm. * Rods and shafts up to 1 meter in diameter from 4mm to 150mm. * Sleeves and fight height 300mm, diameter of 20-300mm * Tubes in metric and inch series, up to 4m. * Cables and hoses with a diameter of 0.5-25mm and wall thickness 0.2-2mm. * Films of pure PTFE with a thickness of 0,015-0,6 mm and a width of 0.1 to 1.2 m. * Custom items with complex shapes, textured surfaces, specially dyed or modified.
