The properties of poly (PTFE) in compression – Introduction
PTFE is a very useful material because it has a unique combination of properties. PTFE is chemically inert, weatherable, excellent electrical insulation, high temperature resistance, a low coefficient of friction and non-adhesive properties. Polymers are commonly used in manufacture and engineeri...Read more -
The effect of fillers for PTFE Seals
Low friction and minimum power consumption are the decisive advantages offered by PTFE seals. These seals can be used without problems also with dry … In spite of its remarkable properties pure, unfilled or virgin PTFE is inadequate for a number of more demanding engineering applications.In...Read more -
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) vs Polymer PTFE/FEP Machining
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) (chemical formula (C8H8)x·(C4H6)y·(C3H3N)z) is a common thermoplastic polymer. Its glass transition temperature is approximately 105 °C (221 °F). ABS is amorphous and therefore has no true melting point.Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic fluoropo...Read more -
Applications of PTFE
PTFE does not melt; it cannot be molded into complex shapes, but must be machined. PTFE is easily machined using standard mechanical woodworking and stamping equipment and tooling. Most shapes are sold slightly oversized for easy trimming and machining to exact sizes. Petrochemical and chemical ...Read more
