PTFE (Teflon®) plays a crucial role in these industries due to its exceptional properties, ensuring high efficiency and safety in various applications.
Highlighted Features:
- Chemical Inertia: Since 1940, it has been used as a sealing and anti-corrosion coating material, resisting almost all chemical agents except alkali metals, fluorine, and strong oxidizers.
- Resistance to Extreme Temperatures: Operates efficiently within a range of -200°C to +260°C.
- Low Absorption: Unlike other plastics, it has virtually no absorption, increasing its durability.
- Proven Safety: About 35% of the global PTFE consumption is dedicated to the chemical and petrochemical sectors, highlighting its reliability.
Main Applications:
- Gaskets;
- Solid, envelope, and expansion joints;
- Valves, rings, washers, diaphragms, and membranes;
- Lined conduction pipes;
- Tank coatings;
- High-voltage electrical insulators.
