Fluoropolymer Resin

Fluoropolymer resin solutions from DuPont offer performance at temperature extremes, chemical inertness, corrosion resistance, and mechanical toughness among their many properties.

The benefits of Teflon® fluoropolymer resin make it the preferred plastic for a host of applications and different processing techniques.

Nonmelt-Processible Fluoroplastics

Compression Molding

Basic stock shapes of cylinders and cubes to be machined into seals, bearings, bushings, piston rings and diaphragms. Sheet is skived for chemical vessel linings and gaskets.
