ETFE COATINGS

ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) is a highly durable and versatile fluoropolymer coating. Known for its exceptional chemical resistance, high-temperature stability, and mechanical strength, ETFE coatings are ideal for demanding applications across industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemical processing, and architectural structures.

Characteristics

Chemical Resistance

Resists a wide range of chemicals, making it ideal for harsh environments.

High Temperature Resistance

Withstands high temperatures without degrading.

Low Friction

Provides a smooth, low-friction surface for various applications.

UV Resistance

Protects against UV radiation, maintaining material integrity

Non-Stick Surface

Ensures a non-stick surface, preventing material buildup.

Electrical Insulation

Acts as an effective insulator in electrical applications.

Durability and Longevity

Offers long-lasting durability even in extreme conditions.

Temperature Range

ETFE coatings can withstand a broad temperature range, making them suitable for extreme environments.

Service Temperature: 300°F to 300°F (-185°C to 150°C)
Melting Point: 270°C (518°F)

Coating Thickness

ETFE coatings are applied at varying thicknesses depending on the application requirements. Common thickness ranges include:

Standard Thickness: 0.25 mm – 1.5 mm
Application-Specific Thickness: up to 2 mm (available on request)

The thickness is determined based on exposure to harsh chemicals, mechanical wear, and operational temperatures.
