Composition and Poperties of PTFE
 Perfluorinated plastic with melting point of 327 °C, molecular weight
approx. 108 g/mol
 Complete protection of C-C-bonds by F-atoms
 Processable by pressing, sintering and chip removing technics
 Nearly universal resistance to chemicals
 Service temperature: - 250 °C to + 250 °C
 High purity, excellent dielectrical properties
 No embrittlement, no aging
Composition and Poperties of modified PTFE: TFM-PTFE
 Molecular weight is about 1/5 of the molecular weight of PTFE
 Contains the same perfluorinated modifier as PFA, but less than 1 %
 Therefore TFM-PTFE closes the cap between classical PTFE and PFA
 Weldable by special technics, thanks to the „shift versus thermoplastic
properties“
 Cold-flow, pore content and stretch-void-index are improved
Composition and Poperties of PFA
 Thermoplastic processable perfluorinated polymere
 Molecular weight approx. 1 % of PTFE, therfore processable by fusion
 4 to 10 % modifier
 melting point: 305 to 290°C
 Highly modified  highly amorph: high transparency, improved alternate
bending and good chemical resistance to stress crack
 Chemical stability and service temperature comparable with PTFE
 Processing methods: injection molding, extrusion, transfer molding
 Thermoplastic processing technics open up new applications for this „material
with PTFE-properties“

Fluoropolymeres - Resistance to Chemicals
Chemical
Effect
fluorinated hydrocarbons
swelling, reversible at short-term exposition
alkali metals, dissolved or molten
elimination of fluorine and polymere decomposition
halogenes, elemental fluorine, chloro trifluoride
chem. reaction possible at elevated temperatures,
material decomposition, possibly violent reaction
nitrating acid (H2SO4 / HNO3)
above 100°C slow material decomposition,
carbonisation
monomeres: styrene, butadiene, acrylnitrile ...
could penetrate into the material; at spontanous
polymerisation: swelling or polymere decomposition.
popcorn-effect
high-energy radiation
-radiation: dose of 10kGy could reduce the
mechanical properties by more than 50%
