  • PTFE vs Silicone

    Silicones, also known as polysiloxanes, are polymers that include any inert, synthetic compound made up of repeating units of siloxane, which is a chain of alternating silicon atoms and oxygen atoms, frequently combined with carbon and/or hydrogen. They are typically heat-resistant and rubber-lik...

  • PTFE vs Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA)

    Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) (conjugate base perfluorooctanoate), also known as C8, is a synthetic perfluorinated carboxylic acid and fluorosurfactant. One industrial application is as a surfactant in the emulsion polymerization of fluoropolymers. It has been used in the manufacture of such prom...

  • PTFE vs Rubber

    PTFE vs Rubber

    PTFE is white by nature. So that is a redundant term. Other forms of polymer like FEP and PFA are more translucent; def not white. PTFE is more chemical resistant than your average automotive elastomer like neoprene and EPDM. That is a “better.” Rubber will degrade well before a fluor...

  • PTFE vs LDPE

    PTFE vs LDPE

    Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) is a thermoplastic made from the monomer ethylene. It was the first grade of polyethylene, produced in 1933 by Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) using a high pressure process via free radical polymerization. The EPA estimates 5.7% of LDPE is recycled. Despite comp...

  • Extruded PTFE Film

    Extruded PTFE Film

    Sintered extruded PTFE film is a quality high modulus non-adhesive PTFE film manufactured by extrusion and sintering processes. The resulting film is characterized by high dielectric strength and chemical resistance, low moisture absorption and resistance to permeability. PTFE Extruded Film Tape...
