PTFE (also known as Teflon®) is a plastomer with high crystallinity: at 340 ° C, it still retains a high viscosity, for which special transformation techniques are required to produce finished parts and semi-finished products. It can be used in a temperature range between -200 °C to + 260 °C.
Peculiar characteristics of PTFE:
• High thermal resistance.
• High resistance to chemicals and solvents.
• High anti-adhesion.
• High dielectric properties.
• Low coefficient of friction.
• Non-toxicity.
