DESCRIPTION
High-Performance, Mechanically Durable Resins
Tefzel™ ETFE (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene) resins are melt-processable copolymers with a reputation for excellent physical toughness and resistance to radiation, chemicals, UV, and extreme temperatures. They also can be customized for desired color, reinforcement, and conductivity levels, allowing them to be used in a variety of high-performance products and components.
Available as pellets or powder, Tefzel™ ETFE resins have multiple applications, which include:
* Electrical insulation and heat-shrinkable tubing
* Wire and cable, including wrapped computer terminations, heavy power circuits, steel mill cables, airframe wire, downhole well logging cable, and rapid transit car and locomotive control wire
* Load-bearing applications in abusive environments
* Cable and hydraulic line clamps, cable straps, and other fasteners
* Valve linings
* Pressure-sensitive tapes, flexible printed circuits, liquid pouches, and other constructions needing a film form
* Biomedical and labware equipment, including oxygen respirator components, blood analyzer valves, evaporating dishes, and centrifuge tubes
Features and Benefits
Whether powder or pellet, Tefzel™ ETFE resins offer relatively low melting points and high-melt flow rates (MFRs), making them easy to process by conventional melt-extrusion techniques and injection-, compression-, transfer-, rotational-, and blow-molding processes.
Other characteristics of Tefzel™ ETFE resins include:
* Low wear factor (1/10 of reinforced nylon)
* High-impact strength and dimensional stability
* Heat resistance with a rating for temperatures up to 150 °C (302 °F) based on the 20,000-hour criterion and good creep resistance
* Low flammability
* Specific gravity of 1.7
* Strong weathering capabilities (up to at least 20 years)
* Low-moisture absorption
* UV resistance
* Resistance to solvents, acids, and bases
DuPont Tefzel 280 fluoropolymer is a premium resin available in translucent, 2.5-mm (0.1-in) pellets. Compared with other grades of Tefzel®, its most unique features are a relatively low flow rate, a greatly enhanced flex life, and resistance to environmental stress.
Tefzel® 280 and the other Tefzel® fluoropolymers are melt processible, modified copolymers of ethylene and tetrafluoroethylene. They are highperformance resins that can be processed at relatively high rates compared with fluorocarbon resins. They are mechanically tough and offer an excellent balance of properties.
Tefzel® 280 is preferred for applications where other thermoplastics are lacking in mechanical toughness, broad thermal capability, ability to meet unusual thermal, mechanical, and chemical environmental extremes, or limited by fabricating problems. Examples are components and linings for the chemical industry and molded parts with metal inserts of thick sections for use at high temperatures.
Properly processed products made from neat Tefzel® 280 are inert to most solvents and chemicals, hydrolytically stable, and weather resistant. Recommended upper service temperature is 150°C (302°F); useful properties are retained at cryogenic ranges. The level and stability of dielectric properties are excellent and the UL94 method flame rating is V-0. They are resistant to environmental stress cracking and have outstanding impact strength, cut-through and abrasion resistance. High-energy radiation resistance meets IEEE 383 and the resin is approved for nuclear power plant use.
Statements, or data, regarding behavior in a flame situation are not intended to reflect hazards presented by this or any other material when under actual fire conditions.
