PTFE Components
Polytetrafluoroethylene, more commonly known as PTFE, is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene. The strong carbon-flourine bonds formed in the PTFE make it resistant to high temperature and corrosive chemicals. It offers an operational temperature range of -30°C to 250°C. PTFE also has non-stick properties among its various advantages.
ADVANTAGES OF PTFE
Hydrophobic
Lowest coefficient of friction
High Flexural Strength
Non-reactive to chemicals
Weatherable and non-adhesive
These diverse aspects of PTFE make it a highly desirable material for many applications. PTFE products are commonly used in petrochemicals, textiles, paper & pulp, chemicals, power plants and other industries. These industries use PTFE to manage media like solvents, reactive and corrosive chemicals, and mineral oils. PTFE is also used in Heat exchanger applications. For instance, Oleum or fuming sulfuric acid production uses O Ring PTFE to cover the entrance neck of gaskets.
