In fluoroplastics, PTFE got the most consumption and was used widely. It is an important material in variety of fluoroplastics. PTFE resin is in a class of paraffinic polymers that have some or all of the hydrogen replaced by fluoride. PTFE exhibit astonishing chemical resistance. This self-lubricating material provides a low friction coefficient, and is ideally suited for the manufacture of corrosion-resistant gaskets & seals. One of the most chemically resistant materials available, PTFE also handles continuous service temperatures approaching 500F((280° C). It also has a high oxygen level. II. Teflon Rod Characteristics: Advantages: 1. Superior endurance in corrosion 2. Superior endurance in seasonal change 3. Non-flammable, limited oxygen index is under 90. 4. Low friction coefficient 5. Non-viscous 6. Superior endurance in high & low temperature, can be used -190~260° C. 7. High electricity insulation 8. High electricity resistance coefficient 9. Self-lubricating 10. Atmospheric aging resistance 11. Radiation-resistant properties and low permeability III. Teflon Rod Applications
