FEP Fluorinated ethylene propylene / ETFE Ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene FEP Fluorinated ethylene propylene FEP, Fluorinated ethylene propylene (fluteck™ E200) is a relatively soft melt-processable fluoropolymer with mechanical properties very similar to those of PTFE but with a lower continuous service temperature and better thermal stability. It is chemically inert and has exceptional dielectric properties over a wide frequency range. FEP possesses a low coefficient of friction, a very high degree of stress crack resistance, wear and heat resistance, and maintains its properties over a wide range of temperatures. It can be sterilized repeatedly and is FDA compliant. Important applications are linings for pipes in chemical processing equipment, roll covers, and numerous wire and cable applications, including aircraft wire, fire alarm cable and fuel cables. ETFE Ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene ETFE, Ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (fluteck™ E400) is a fluorinated copolymer that is translucent and white in color. ETFE has a relatively high melting temperature, excellent chemical, electrical and high-energy radiation resistance properties, good mechanical properties and high abrasion resistance and impact strength. ETFE is used in films or panels to clad the exterior of architectural structures (by film lamination). Another key use of ETFE is the jacketing of electrical and fiber-optic wiring and cables. Aircraft and spacecraft wiring are primary examples. The addition of glass fiber in fluteck™ E401 further improves its mechanical properties such as deformation, wear and abrasion resistance. fluteck™ E200 fluteck™ E400 Comparison Table FLON GASKETS S.R.L. – 24060 Sovere (BG) Italy – Via delle Industrie 7 – Phone +39 035 827119 – Fax +39 035 827243 – VAT n° IT03811300163 We use cookies to ensure that we give you the best experience on our website.
