Everflon® PTFE Fine Powder F500is a polytetrafluoroethylene fine powder resin used primarily for paste extrusion. Everflon® PTFE F500 offers the excellent combination of properties typical of Everflonfluoroplastic resins:
• Non-aging characteristics
• Chemical inertness tonearly all industrial chemicals and solvents
• Exceptional dielectric properties, stable with frequency and temperature
•Toughness and flexibility
• Low coefficient of friction
• Non-stick characteristics
• Negligible moisture absorption
• Excellent weather resistance
• Service temperature up to 260 °C (500 °F)
• Useful properties at –240 °C (–400 °F)
• Moderate stiffness and high ultimate elongation
Compared with other grades of PTFE fine powder,Everflon PTFE F500 is a premium resin that has increased thermal stability, superior flex life, superior stress crack resistance, low permeability, and high clarity. E
verflon PTFE F500 is designed for processing at medium to high reduction ratios of 100:1 to 600:1. It is particularly suitable for production of high quality tubing, spaghetti tubing, and wire coating. This grade is also highly suitable for after-processing technologies, such as flanging, welding, blow molding, and convoluting.
Everflon PTFE F500 meets the requirements of ASTM D4895,
