Ensinger PEI

Chemours Teflon™ Type CLP, one side cementable PFA film
Categories: Polymer; Film; Thermoplastic; Fluoropolymer; Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA)

Material Notes: Teflon™ PFA film is a transparent, thermoplastic film that can be heat sealed, thermoformed, vacuum formed, heat bonded, welded, metallized, laminated (combined with dozens of other materials), and used as an excellent hot-melt adhesive. This wide variety of fabrication possibilities combines with the following important properties to offer a unique balance of capabilities not available in any other plastic film. Teflon™ PFA film is chemically inert and solvent-resistant to virtually all chemicals, except molten alkali metals, gaseous fluorine, and certain complex halogenated compounds, such as chlorine trifluoride at elevated temperatures and pressures. It also has low permeability to liquids, gases, moisture, and organic vapors. Features: Chemical Compatibility, Electrical Reliability, Wide Thermal Range, Mechanical Toughness, Long Time Weatherability, Reliability. The convenience of Teflon™ PFA fluoropolymer in easy-to-use film facilitates the design and fabrication of this low friction thermoplastic for all sorts of high performance jobs. It is transparent and can be heat sealed, thermoformed, welded, and heat bonded. Superior anti-stick properties make it an ideal release film for many applications. A cementable type with an invisible surface treatment is available for bonding to one or both sides with adhesives.
