3P - High-Purity Fluoropolymer

PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy alkane) is a high-performance fluoropolymer that stands out for its exceptional use in high purity applications, often selected for environments demanding minimal contamination. It shares many properties with PTFE, such as thermal stability and low friction, yet distinguishes itself with its structural composition, where certain carbon atoms are bonded to fluoroether groups. This gives PFA unique mechanical properties superior to those of FEP at elevated temperatures, making it suitable for intricate parts due to its moldability and direct extrusion capabilities. Though PFA tubes are more flexible than PTFE ones, they do not match the flexlife of PTFE. Its renowned chemical resilience and electrical properties facilitate its usage in demanding sectors like the semiconductor and pharmaceutical industries. The minimal contamination level during its production further enhances its preference in such sectors.
