Everflon+™ PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) fluoroadditives are finely divided white powders of (PTFE) resin. They are typically added in small quantities to other solid or liquid materials to improve abrasion resistance and lubricity. They are a separate and distinctive product line, very different from standard Everflon™ PTFE molding and extrusion resins. The differences include a lower molecular weight, smaller particle sizes (2 to 20 μm) and different particle shapes. Everflon+™ fluoroadditive powders are designed primarily for use as minority components in mixtures with other solid or liquid materials. Even in small quantities, they can impart some of the high performance properties of PTFE to various host materials.
Applications
Coatings for increased weatherability, UV protection, lubricity and enhanced durability. Seal and gasket material for reduced coefficient of friction and release. Inks and printing formulations for improved durability. Performance improvement in grease and lubricants. Other end use applications requiring a high performance fluoroplastic material.
