Properties Of PTFE
PTFE has extraordinary performance at very low cost. It is usually used when the requirements cannot be met by other technopolymers. For example, in chemically aggressive environments, or in the presence of high temperatures. It is a unique material, has a low coefficient of friction, high resistance to external agents, an excellent degree of non-adhesiveness, and resistance to high or low temperatures.
Thermal properties
PTFE has a low coefficient of thermal transmission and is therefore considered a thermal insulator. It is not flammable and manages to be stable at temperatures up to 260”C, for long times.
Chemical properties
PTFE is inert to chemical reagents. Just be attacked by certain elemental alkali, metals and by fluorine. PTFE is insoluble in any solvent at temperatures up to 300°C. It´s suitable for contact with food, it has excellent resistance, even in the presence of UV rays, it´s not flammable and it´s totally water repellent.
Mechanical Properties
The mechanical properties of PTFE are non-adhesion, and low coefficient of friction with quite high loads. The elongation at break is over 100% and the shrinkage after machining is high.
Electrical properties
PTFE has excellent dielectric qualities over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies. Since water absorption is practically nil, the characteristics remain unaltered even after prolonged exposure to atmospheric agents. Dielectric strength is virtually unaffected by operating temperature.
Frequently Asked Questions for PTFE and Teflon
PTFE stands out due to its exceptional resistance to chemicals, high and low temperature stability, non-stick properties, and low coefficient of friction. It is typically used in applications where other polymers fail, such as chemically aggressive environments or extreme temperature conditions.
Yes. FELIS SRL’s PTFE is ISO 9001 certified and comes with all relevant certificates for both product and raw materials (ISO, FDA, ROHS, WRC, SGS, and more). Strict quality control is ensured through repeated laboratory testing, both internally and externally.
Absolutely. PTFE is food-safe, water-repellent, and resistant to UV rays, making it suitable for food-contact environments. It also has excellent dielectric properties with virtually no water absorption, ensuring stable performance in electrical applications across a wide range of temperatures and frequencies.
