PFA-HP
stands for perfluorinated alkoxyalkane high-performance polymer.
PFA is a variant of fluoropolymer, characterized by its high temperature resistance, chemical resistance, and electrical insulation capabilities.
Properties of PFA-HP:
High Temperature Resistance:
PFA-HP is characterized by exceptionally high temperature resistance and can withstand temperatures up to approximately 260°C without undergoing structural changes.
Excellent Chemical Resistance:
PFA-HP is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, bases, solvents, and many aggressive substances.
Electrical Insulation:
PFA-HP exhibits very good dielectric properties and is therefore often required in applications where electrical insulation and resistance to high temperatures are necessary.
Low Friction:
The material has low friction, which makes it advantageous in applications with sliding movements and low wear.
Transparency:
PFA-HP can be transparent, making it attractive for optical applications.
Good Processability:
PFA-HP is easy to process and form, enabling the production of complex components.
Applications of PFA-HP:
PFA-HP is used in various demanding applications, including:
Chemical industry: Pipelines, valves, seals and other components that come into contact with aggressive chemicals.
Electronics industry: Insulators, cable sheathing, connectors and other electronic components that require high temperatures and chemical resistance.
Medical technology: Components in medical devices that require high temperature resistance and sterilizability.
Semiconductor industry: Wafer coatings, seals and other components that have strict requirements for purity and resistance to chemical processes.
Optical applications: Lenses, coatings and other components in optics.
Due to its outstanding properties, PFA-HP is used in areas where high temperatures, chemical aggressiveness and electrical insulation play a decisive role.
