The main difference between FEP tube and PFA tube is that FEP tube has a temperature resistance of 200 degrees, PFA tube has a temperature resistance of 260 degrees, and other differences are very small.
Common names: FEP pipe, PFA pipe, transparent Teflon pipe, F46 pipe, FEP casing, PFA casing, transparent Teflon casing, F46 casing, FEP oil pipe, PFA oil pipe, transparent Teflon oil pipe, F46 oil pipe, FEP air pipe, PFA air pipe, transparent Teflon air pipe, F46 air pipe
Product specifications: color: commonly used color: transparent, black;
Not commonly used color: yellow, brown, green, blue
Properties: Common properties:
Use temperature:-200 degrees to 200 degrees: easy processing: can flanging, welding: aging resistance: can be exposed to ozone and sunlight for a long time, without aging.
High transparency: the lowest refractive index in all plastics, can be very intuitive to see the flow of the medium in the tube
Corrosion resistance: able to withstand all strong acids, strong oxidants, strong reducing agents and various organic solvents except molten alkali metals, fluorinated media and those above 300 °
Not commonly used characteristics: density: 2.14-2.17g/cm3; Volume resistance> 1 × 1018; Surface resistance> 2 × 1013; Arc resistance> 165 seconds without leakage; Low water absorption: water absorption <0.1%; Minimum friction coefficient: minimum friction coefficient; Surface non-stickiness: Known solid material heads cannot adhere to the surface.
Incombustible: the air will not burn, in line with the strict requirements of the fire place
Non-toxic: five toxic tasteless, with physiological inertia, no harm to people and the environment

PFA plastic is a copolymer of a small amount of perfluoropropyl perfluorovinyl ether and polytetrafluoroethylene. The melt cohesiveness is enhanced, the solution viscosity is reduced, and the performance is unchanged compared with PTFE. This kind of resin can be directly processed into products by ordinary thermoplastic molding methods. Suitable for the production of corrosion-resistant parts, wear-reducing parts, seals, insulation and equipment parts, high-temperature wires, cable insulation, anti-corrosion equipment, sealing materials, pump valve bushings, and chemical containers.
1. It is a copolymer of a small amount of perfluoropropyl perfluorovinyl ether and polytetrafluoroethylene. The melt cohesiveness is enhanced, the solution viscosity is reduced, and the performance is unchanged compared with PTFE. This kind of resin can be directly processed into products by ordinary thermoplastic molding methods.
2, long-term use temperature -196-260 degrees, has excellent chemical resistance, corrosion resistance to all chemicals, the friction coefficient is the lowest in plastics, there are good electrical properties, its electrical insulation is not affected by temperature, known as "plastic king.

3, its chemical resistance is similar to polytetrafluoroethylene, better than vinylidene fluoride.
4, its creep resistance and compression strength are better than PTFE, high tensile strength, elongation up to 100-300%. Good dielectric properties, excellent radiation resistance. Flame retardant up to V0 level.
5, suitable for the production of corrosion-resistant parts, anti-wear parts, seals, insulation parts and equipment parts.
6, high temperature wire, cable insulation, anti-corrosion equipment, sealing materials, pump valve bushing, and chemical containers.
Forming performance
1. Crystalline material, moisture absorption is small. It can be processed into products by common thermoplastic processing methods.
2. Poor fluidity, easy to decompose, and corrosive gas is generated during decomposition. It is advisable to strictly control the molding temperature not to exceed 475 degrees, the mold should be heated to 150-200 degrees, and the resistance of the gating system to the material flow should be small.
3. Translucent pellets, injection molding, extrusion molding. The molding temperature is 350-400 degrees, and more than 475 degrees is easy to cause discoloration or bubbles. And note that demoulding will be more difficult.
4, because the molten material has a corrosive effect on the metal, long-term production, the mold needs to be plated with chromium.
perfluoroalkoxy resin
PFA resins are relatively new melt-processable fluoroplastics.
PFA has a melting point of about 580F and a density of 2.13- 2.16g/cc (grams per cubic centimeter). PFA is similar to PTFE and FEP, but above 302T, the mechanical properties are slightly better than FEP, and can be used at temperatures up to 500F, and its chemical resistance is equivalent to PTFE. The product forms of PFA are granular products for molding and extrusion, powder products for rotational molding and coating, and semi-finished products are films, plates, rods and pipes. The PFA resins distributed in the U.S. market include the Teflon brand of DUPOut, the Neoflon brand of Daikin, the Hthen brand of Ansimont, and the Hostafl brand of HOechst Celanese. The use of PFA is similar to FEP.
