Fireproof, insulated, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant polytetrafluoroethylene sheet

PTFE, commonly known by the brand name Teflon, is a high-performance fluoropolymer that offers a unique combination of fire resistance, insulation, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. This material is widely used across various industries due to its exceptional properties and versatility.

Key Properties

Fire Resistance: PTFE sheets can withstand high temperatures up to 260°C (500°F) without degrading. They are also self-extinguishing and do not support combustion, making them ideal for fire-resistant applications.

Thermal Insulation: PTFE has excellent thermal insulation properties, maintaining its performance across a wide temperature range from -200°C to +260°C. This makes it suitable for applications requiring high thermal stability.

Wear Resistance: PTFE has an extremely low coefficient of friction (0.05-0.10), which reduces wear and tear on components. This property is ideal for applications involving sliding or frictional contact.

Corrosion Resistance: PTFE is highly resistant to virtually all chemicals, including acids, bases, and solvents. It remains inert even in the most aggressive chemical environments.

Electrical Insulation: PTFE has excellent dielectric properties, making it a superior insulator for electrical and electronic applications.

Applications

Aerospace: Used in aircraft components, seals, and gaskets where high-temperature and chemical resistance are essential.

Automotive: Ideal for engine components, seals, and bearings that require high-temperature resistance and low friction.

Chemical Processing: PTFE sheets are used in chemical reactors, valves, and piping systems where resistance to corrosive chemicals is required.

Electronics: Used in high-voltage insulators and components due to its excellent electrical insulation properties.

Food Processing: PTFE’s non-stick and easy-clean properties make it suitable for food-grade applications.

Medical Devices: Suitable for medical implants and devices due to its biocompatibility and non-stick properties.
