Politetrafluoroetilénbl

Politetrafluoroetilénbl, commonly known as PTFE or by its brand name Teflon, is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene. It is a solid polymer, appearing as a white powder in its raw form. PTFE is renowned for its exceptional chemical inertness, meaning it resists reaction with most chemicals and solvents. It also exhibits a very low coefficient of friction, making its surface extremely slippery. This low friction property, coupled with its non-stick characteristics, makes it highly useful in various applications. PTFE has a high melting point and is stable at elevated temperatures. It is also an excellent electrical insulator. These properties contribute to its widespread use in industries such as cookware, industrial coatings, seals and gaskets, electrical insulation, and medical devices. Its inertness allows it to be used in environments where other materials would degrade. PTFE is processed using techniques such as molding, extrusion, and dispersion. It is a highly durable material that is resistant to wear and abrasion.
