Typical Applications 

Applications for Teflon™  PFA C-960 include extruded tubing,  profiles, and industrial film and injection or compression  molded articles requiring anti-static properties for linings of  components used in the chemical processing industries. 

A second application is targeted at cables: targets heating  cables based on semi-conductive insulation layers and  higher voltage applications where corona effects need to be  addressed. 

Description  

Teflon™  PFA C-960 (perfluoroalkoxy) fluoropolymer resins  combine the chemical and high temperature resistance of  Teflon™  PFA with anti-static levels of electrical conductivity. 

Properly processed products made from Teflon™  PFA  C-960 resins provide the superior properties typical  of fluoropolymers: retention of properties after service  estimated at 250 °C (482 °F), useful properties at –196 °C  (–321 °F), and chemical inertness to nearly all industrial  chemicals and solvents. Molded products have moderate  stiffness, excellent toughness, low coefficient of friction,  non-stick characteristics, resistance to creep at high service  temperatures, and excellent weather resistance. 

These resins can be processed by traditional injection  molding and extrusion processes. They have high  melt strength and thermal stability at high processing  temperatures.
