PTFE (Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene)

PTFE (Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene) are polymeric materials that have great non-sticking properties and also resist very high temperatures. They are composed of tetrafluoroethylene monomers and possess a unique molecular structure with good carbon-flourine bonds which makes the material chemically inert. One of the most popular materials in manufacturing for non-stick coatings on cookware, these polymers offer a very low coefficient of friction. The high level of thermal stability ensures that PTFE (Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene) polymers can withstand temperatures from 200 to 260 degrees Celsius and, therefore, are used in many sectors such as the automotive and aerospace industries where reliability and robustness are much needed.
