FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) is a melt processable fluoroplastic. FEP can be used in applications that don’t require the enhanced properties, and temperature rating of PFA.

FEP fluoroplastics are processed by conventional melt extrusion techniques and by injection, compression, transfer and blow molding processes. FEP fluoroplastics are ideal for wire coating and molding a wide variety of end use articles and components.

FEP offers an excellent combination of properties characteristic of all fluoroplastics; a wide service temperature range, exceptional dielectric and electrical properties, low coefficient of friction, low flammability and chemical resistance. FEP has a service temperature range, up to 200°C (392°F).

While FEP can be fabricated into solid shapes and molded articles it is best known as an industry leading product line in the wire and cable industry where it is used for wire coating and cable jacket fabrication. FEP offers wire and cable OEMs a high performance fluoroplastic material with excellent electrical properties, ease of processing and consistent performance.

The FEP product line is one the broadest in the industry. With Melt Flow Rates (MFR) from 3 to 30, and a wide range of application specific grades, FEP is uniquely positioned to offer exceptional performance in both general purpose and high speed wire and cable constructions.

PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) fluoroplastics are available in pellet or powder form, and combine the processing ease of conventional thermoplastic resins with the high performance properties of PTFE.

PFA fluoroplastics are processed by conventional melt-extrusion techniques and by injection, compression, rotational, transfer and blow-molding processes. PFA fluoroplastics are ideal for wire coating and molding a wide variety of end use articles and components .

Products fabricated from genuine PFA are unaffected by most chemicals and feature superior electrical, low friction and mechanical properties and offer a wide service temperature range, up to 260°C (500°F).

PFA provides superior creep resistance at high temperatures, excellent low temperature toughness and exceptional flame resistance. Special grades of PFA (E series) have been developed to meet the rigorous demands of the semiconductor industry for purity, low extractable levels and minimal outgassing.

Additional grades of PFA are available to support roto molding and other specialty applications.

ETFE (ethylenetetrafluoroethylene) is a melt processable fluoroplastic resin. ETFE fluoroplastics are ideal for wire coating and molding a wide variety of end use articles and components. ETFE has a wide service temperature range with characteristics of other fluoroplastic resins; low flammability, chemical resistance, exceptional dielectric and electrical properties, superior mechanical toughness, abrasion resistance and environmental robustness.

ETFE fluoroplastic grades have a service temperature range of 150°C- 200°C. In addition to these upper service temperature ranges, ETFE also retains its useful properties at cryogenic temperatures.

While ETFE can be fabricated into solid shapes and molded articles it is best known as an industry leading product line in the wire and cable industry where it is used for wire coating and cable jacket fabrication. ETFE offers wire and cable OEMs a high performance fluoroplastic material with excellent electrical properties, ease of processing and extreme toughness.

The ETFE product line is one the broadest in the industry. With Melt Flow Rates (MFR) from 2 to 30, and a wide range of application specific grades, ETFE is uniquely positioned to offer exceptional performance in both general purpose, thin wall and wire and cable constructions.

Special ETFE grades are also available for special applications involving rotational molding and where static dissipative or adhesion properties are required.
