TEFLON® PTFE (POLYTETRAFLUORETHYLENE) Nonstick coatings have the highest operating temperature of any fluoropolymer 290 C/550 F, and extremely low coefficient of friction and good chemical resistance.
TEFLON® FEP (FLUORINATED ETHYLENEPROPYLENE COPOLYMER) Nonstick coatings melt and flow during baking to provide nonporous films. These coatings provide excellent chemical resistance. In addition to low friction, FEP coatings have excellent nonstick properties.
TEFLON® PFA (PERFLUOROALKOXY) Like FEP, PFA coatings melt and flow during baking to provide nonporous films. PFA offers the additional benefits of higher continuous temperature of 260 C/500 F, heavier average film thickness and greater toughness than PTFE or FEP.
TEFLON®-S Formulated with special blends of fluoropolymers and other high-performance resins to improve toughness and abrasion resistance. TEFLON-S is used where heavy-duty service or lubrication under high pressure/velocity conditions exist.
HALAR® ECTFE (ETHYLENE-CHLOROTRIFLUOROETHYLENE) offers superior chemical resistance, good electrical and abrasion resistance. Heavier film builds can be achieved compared to most FLUOROCARBON coatings.
KYNAR® PVDF (POLYVINYLIDENE FLUORIDE) Similar to ECTFE coating, PVDF exhibits a high level of mechanical strength and toughness with excellent chemical resistance over a broad temperature range.
