PTFE COMPOUNDS The development of post processing technologies have contributed to improve the properties of unfilled PTFE for demanding applications. The addition of a suitable quantity of organic, inorganic and mineral fillers can improve some mechanical, chemical, tribological, thermical and electrical properties. Up to 60% by volume of fillers can be added to virgin PTFE. The most common fillers are glass fibers, carbon, molybdenum disulfide, carbon fibers, bronze and graphite. Due to extreme charge and functional neutrality of its chains, PTFE is not an easy polymer to compound. In fact, any filler must withstand the sintering temperature above 400°C for several hours. This specific requirement excludes by itself many materials. Fluorseals guarantees the availability of standard and customized PTFE compound grades tailored to meet specific customer demand. The manufacturing procedures of PTFE resins and fillers used in internal processing stages, the chemical compositions and particle sizes traceability guarantee the stability of the chemical and mechanical characteristics.
