PTFE, or Polytetrafluoroethylene, is a high-performance fluoropolymer known by its popular trade name Teflon®. With outstanding resistance to heat, chemicals, and electrical stress, PTFE is a cornerstone material in industries where conventional plastics, metals, and rubbers fail.
PTFE's unique molecular structure gives it inertness to nearly all chemicals, ultra-low surface friction, and the ability to withstand temperatures up to 260°C (500°F). These properties make it indispensable in a wide array of sectors:
In environments filled with concentrated acids, caustics, and reactive gases, corrosion is a constant threat. PTFE is one of the few materials that:
Resists attack from virtually all chemicals, including hydrofluoric and sulfuric acid.
Maintains stability under thermal and mechanical stress.
Is used in tank linings, seals, gaskets, pump parts, and PTFE immersion heaters.
When even the tiniest contamination can ruin a chip, PTFE steps in:
It's non-leaching, non-reactive, and free of extractables.
Used in chemical delivery systems, cleanroom fluid lines, and ultrapure heating systems.
Compatible with acids like HCl and HNO₃ used in etching and cleaning.
In GMP-compliant environments:
PTFE's FDA-grade versions ensure safety and hygiene.
It withstands CIP (clean-in-place) and SIP (sterilize-in-place) procedures.
Used in reactor linings, tubing, gaskets, and heating jackets.
PTFE-coated electric heaters are vital for heating:
Corrosive chemical tanks in plating or pickling.
Cleaning baths in precision optics or medical fields.
Flexible PTFE heaters deliver uniform heat, chemical resistance, and long service life.
