Fluororesin: "What are the differences in types of resins?"
I will explain the differences between the representative fluororesins "PTFE," "PFA," and "FEP."
Types and Characteristics of Representative Fluororesins ■Resin Name PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) ■Characteristics It has the highest continuous use temperature of 260°C, and is excellent in heat resistance, non-stick properties, and low friction characteristics. It has a high melt viscosity, making common molding methods for thermoplastic resins unsuitable. ■Also Known As Tetrafluoroethylene, 4F ■Resin Name PFA (Perfluoroalkoxyalkane Polymer) ■Characteristics An improved resin of PTFE, it has the same continuous use temperature of 260°C. It has a low thermal melt viscosity, allowing processing using molding methods for thermoplastic resins such as injection molding and extrusion. ■Resin Name FEP (Perfluoroethylene Propylene Copolymer) ■Characteristics An improved resin of PTFE, but with lower heat resistance than PTFE. Similar to PFA, it can be processed using molding methods for thermoplastic resins. ■Also Known As 4F6F, Tetrahexafluoride
