PCTFE, combines physical and mechanical properties, non flammability, chemical resistance, near-zero moisture absorption and excellent electrical properties not found in any other thermoplastic fluoropolymer that also performs well in a temperature range of -400° F to 400° F. PCTFE also has high compressive strength, an exceptional resistance to cold flow and is optically transparent. Because PCTFE is a highly fluorinated resin, it is nonflammable and resists most corrosive chemicals.
