Polytetrafluoroethylene
(PTFE) is a high molecular weight polymer, one of the most versatile plastic
materials known and useful for a large range of products for applications
excluded to other materials. The most outstanding characteristics are:
high heat resistance, high resistance to chemical agents and solvents, high
anti adhesiveness, high dielectric properties, low friction coefficient, and
non-toxicity. PTFE is generally considered a thermoplastic polymer; at
327°C it maintains a very high viscocity, thus requiring particular
transformation techniques for manufacturing of finished and semi-finished
goods. PTFE can be employed at any temperature from -200°C to 260°C.
GAPI USA, Inc. manufactures PTFE Stock Shapes
