ETFE - Ethylentetrafluorethylen
ETFE has got excellent mechanical characteristics, an elevated hardness and tensile strength are combined with chemical resistance and electric and thermal characteristics of other fluoro-plastics with especially high demands as for example on:
Outstanding features and advantages of ETFE-Cables:
- high chemical and solvent resistance
- cold and heat resistance
- elevated tensile strength and pressure resistance
- good electric and insulation characteristics with low dielectric values almost independent on frequency
- operating temperature from approx. -90°C up to +135 °C
FEP - Fluorethylenpropylen
This material belongs to the fusible fluoroplastics and can be extruded. It has got a bigger friction coefficient and a lower permanent operating temperature than PTFE. FEP offers the following characteristics:
Outstanding features and advantages of FEP-Cables:
- excellent temperature resistance
- deep temperature flexibility
- very good resistance against oils and chemicals
- good electric insulating characteristics with almost frequency independent dielectric characteristics
- operating temperature from approx. -90°C up to +180°C
PFA - Perfluoralkoxy
This fluoroplastic material has got a good chemical resistance, a broad application temperature range as well as a very good resistance against ageing and weather conditions. Furthermore, it shows a low friction resistance and a good electrical insulation with especially high demands as for example on:
Outstanding features and advantages of PFA-Cables:
- high demands on chemical and solvent resistance
- high degree of resistance
- excellent temperature resistance and deep temperature flexibility
- good electrical insulation characteristics with low almost frequency independent dielectric characteristics
- operating temperature from approx. -90°C up to +250°C (short term +260°C)
