ETFE FILMS FAQ

Fluoropolymers are high-performance polymers known for their exceptional chemical resistance, thermal stability, and non-stick properties. They are used in demanding environments such as chemical processing, semiconductors, and aerospace due to their durability and versatility.

Accelerate innovation with world-class tech teams We’ll match you to an entire remote team of incredible freelance talent for all your software.

While both are forms of Polytetrafluoroethylene, ePTFE (expanded PTFE) is a specialized version with a microporous structure. This gives ePTFE superior conformability, compressibility, and permeability, making it ideal for sealing and filtration applications.

 

FEP offers excellent chemical resistance, high clarity, and UV stability. It is melt-processable, making it suitable for applications like tubing, wire coatings, and heat shrink films.
