ECTFE for short, is a high-performance fluoropolymer known for its exceptional chemical resistance and mechanical strength.
Chemical resistance:
ECTFE is extremely resistant to a wide range of chemicals, acids and bases. This outstanding chemical resistance makes it extremely suitable for use in aggressive industrial environments, such as the chemical and petrochemical industries.
Temperature resistance:
ECTFE retains its mechanical properties at temperatures of up to around 150 degrees Celsius. This makes it suitable for applications in environments with elevated temperatures.
Mechanical strength:
ECTFE has high mechanical strength and rigidity, which makes it suitable for structural applications.
Electrical insulation:
As a good insulator, ECTFE is used in the electrical industry for the manufacture of insulators, cable sheathing and other electrical components.
Weather resistance:
ECTFE is resistant to UV radiation and weathering, which makes it attractive for outdoor use or long-term exposure to sunlight.
Low water absorption:
ECTFE absorbs only small amounts of water, which results in low moisture absorption and retains its electrical properties.
