ETFE rods (tetrafluoroethylene - ethylene copolymer)
1.long-term working temperature - 80-80 ℃, excellent chemical corrosion resistance, Lowest friction

coefficient among the plastic material. Perfect electric performance, the electric insulation is not affected

by temperature.It is regarded as "plastics king".

2. the chemicals resistance is similar as ptfe , better than Vinylidene Fluoride (VDF)

3.the creep resistance and compression strength is better than teflon, high tensile strength, elongation

can get up to 100-300%.Good dielectric properties, perfect radiation resistance.

Gravity: 1.7 g/cm3 , molding shrinkage rate: 3.1-7.7% , molding temperature: 300-330 ℃.


Material properties:
1.long-term working temperature - 80-80 ℃, excellent chemical corrosion resistance, Lowest friction coefficient among the plastic material. Perfect electric performance, the electric insulation is not affected by temperature.It is regarded as "plastics king".
2. the chemicals resistance is similar as ptfe , better than Vinylidene Fluoride (VDF)

Mechanical properties:
1.crystal material, small moisture absorption.it is usually used to produce the products by thermoplastic processing method .
2. Poor liquidity, easy to decompose, decompose our corrosion gas when it decomposes. strictly control the mold temperature within 350 degrees. The mould should be heated to 100-100 degrees, pouring system of material flow resistance should be small.It can be made into 0.7-0.8 mm thin wall thickness simple products.
3. Transparent granular materials, injection molding, extrusion molding.Mold temperature 300-300 degrees.over 350 degrees ,it is easy to cause discoloration or bubbling.Appropriate high speed & low pressure to mold , and pay attention to demoulding will be some difficult.

ETFE has the corrosion resistance properties of ptfe, at the same time it has a strong adhesion characteristics to metal .It overcomes PTFE’s non-adhesive properties to metal defect, together with its average linear expansion coefficient is close to the linear expansion coefficient of carbon steel, ETFE becomes into an ideal metal composited material with extremely high negative pressure resistant properties.ETFE has excellent comprehensive performance, small friction coefficient, excellent mechanical properties, highest low temperature impact strength among the existing fluorine plastic.Good dielectric properties, low dielectric constant, perfect radiation resistance performance.

Typical usage:

ETFE can be made into complex shape products. It is suitable for making corrosion resistance parts, wear parts for the antifriction, seal, insulation parts and medical equipment parts, wire, cable insulation, cable sheath, anticorrosive equipment, sealing materials, pump valve bushing, anti-corrosion pump/valve, pipe fittings and lining, chemical containers, etc.
