Custom Q&A

What is FEP?

FEP stands for Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene. It is a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and hexafluoropropylene (HFP).

What are the characteristics of FEP?

FEP has good thermal stability, excellent chemical resistance, and electrical insulation.

What are the processing technologies used for FEP?

FEP can be processed by conventional melting extrusion, injection molding, blow molding, and other processing technologies.

In which industries is FEP widely used?

FEP is widely used in communication, petrochemical, aerospace, and military industries.

How is FEP 610 different from other FEP resins?

FEP 610 has a low molecular weight and high melt index, which results in a lower extrusion temperature and higher extrusion velocity compared to common FEP resins. It also has good flexibility, fold resistance, and tenacity.

What are the visible impurity limitations for FEP pellets?

The FEP pellets should not contain scrap metal, sand, or other impurities, and particles with visible dark spots should not exceed 2%.

What are the applications of FEP resin?

FEP resin is mainly used for wire insulation layer, tubes, film, and other extrusion processed products.

What are the key features of FEP?

Some key features of FEP include excellent resistance to solvents and chemicals, low dielectric constant and dielectric loss, outstanding electrical properties, broad use-temperature range, extremely low flammability, and very good non-sticking release properties.

How does FEP compare to PTFE?

FEP combines the mechanical and chemical properties of PTFE with the melt-processability of more conventional polymers. It has a slightly higher coefficient of friction than PTFE and is used in biomedical devices as a substitute for PTFE.

How does the melt viscosity of FEP compare to PTFE?

The melt viscosity of FEP is over one million times lower than that of PTFE.
