Tefzel™ ETFE HT-2162 is a specialty fluoropolymer resin  available in powder form. Compared with other grades of  Tefzel™ ETFE, its most unique features are an intermediate  flow rate and a balance of properties that make it suitable  for a variety of processes and demanding end uses. Table 1 shows typical property data for Tefzel™ ETFE HT-2162. 

Tefzel™ ETFE HT-2162 and the other Tefzel™ ETFE  fluoropolymers are melt processible, modified copolymers  of ethylene and tetrafluoroethylene. They are highperformance resins that can be processed at relatively  high rates, compared with other fluorocarbon resins. They  are mechanically tough and offer an excellent balance of  properties. 

Tefzel™ ETFE HT-2162 can perform successfully in  applications where other thermoplastics are lacking in  mechanical toughness, broad thermal capability, ability  to meet difficult environmental conditions, or limited by  fabricating problems. 

Properly processed products made from neat Tefzel™  ETFE HT-2162 are inert to most solvents and chemicals,  hydrolytically stable, and weather-resistant. The  recommended upper service temperature is 155 °C (311 °F);  useful properties are retained at cryogenic ranges. The level  and stability of dielectric properties are excellent. Mechanical  properties include outstanding impact strength, cut-through,  and abrasion resistance. 

Statements, or data, regarding behavior in a flame situation  are not intended to reflect hazards presented by this or any  other material when under actual fire conditions.
