Japanese Translucent PCTFE Rod Acid Alkali Resistant Low Temperature Imported
We extrude PCTFE rods from 5mm diameters to 45mm diameters. On request we also offer grinded material and extra annealing for strict tolerances. Depending on the size you require, we offer PCTFE rod in one, two or three meter lengths.
PCTFE, Polychlorotrifluoroethylene is a melt-processable chlorofluoropolymer. The presence of a chlorine atom, which has a greater atomic radius than that of fluorine, gives rise to irregularities in the polymer chain and reduces polymer crystallinity. This results in PCTFE having a relatively low melting point among fluoropolymers. It is also the polymer with the lowest water vapor and moisture absorption rate. It resists ignition because its Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI), which is greater than 95.
application:
1. Contact with highly corrosive media, sealing and gasket materials of high-pressure systems, transparent materials for observation windows, etc.
2. Electrical insulation materials, etc.
3. Low molecular weight PCTFE is used as sealing fluid, grease for highly corrosive media and balancing fluid for navigation gyros.
PCTFE rod offers outstanding chemical resistance and cold flow resistance, making it ideal for demanding applications.
