Resin
Teflon® PFA is a perfluoroalkoxy copolymer resin available in pellet or powder. Teflon® PFA combines the processing ease of conventional thermoplastic resins with the excellent properties of Teflon® polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE).
Products manufactured from Teflon® PFA can offer continuous service temperatures up to 260°C (500°F). What's more, Teflon® PFA provides superior creep resistance at high temperatures, excellent low-temperature toughness, and exceptional flame resistance.
Teflon® PFA fluoroplastic resins are processed by conventional melt-extrusion techniques and by injection, compression, rotational, transfer, and blow-molding processes. The high melt strength and heat stability of these resins permit the use of relatively large die openings and high-temperature draw-down techniques, which increase processing rates. Reciprocating screw injection molding machines are recommended. Corrosion-resistant metals should be used in contact with the molten resin. Long extruder barrels, relative to diameter, are used to provide residence time for heating the resin to 316° to 427°C (600° to 800°F).
