The
Vertec 3000 Series consists of a wide variety of fluorine
based polymers, including PFA (perfluoroalkoxy), PCTFE (polychlorotrifluoroethylene),
PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride), ETFE (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene),
ECTFE (ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene) and FEP (fluorinated
ethylene propylene).
These
materials offer excellent electrical insulating properties
combined with good tensile strength, high heat resistance
and outstanding chemical resistance. The high purity grades
are available for pharmaceutical, food processing and semiconductor
processing applications.
