Color Concentrates, Compounds and Inks for E-CTFE

View

E-CTFE, like other melt-processible fluoropolymers, is a moderately soft and pliable plastic resin. It's service temperature is on the order of 150°C (300°F), depending upon the specific grade. It features a unique combination of electrical performance, temperature resistance, tribological properties and chemical resistance. E-CTFE features one of the higher tensile strength ratings of the melt processible family, making it a good candidate for injection molding applications. E-CTFE is used commonly in a wide variety of applications. It can be readily extruded or injection molded. Colorant Chromatics E-CTFE compounds provide enhanced properties over unfilled grades of  E-CTFE for applications that require special performance or a combination of performance features.

Titanate fiber reinforced compounds

E-CTFE titanate fiber reinforced compounds are chemically inert, with excellent cryogenic and high temperature physical properties. Typical applications include extruded components where abrasion resistance and cut through resistance are required. In addition, these compounds can be injected molded. Parts made from these compounds feature improved tensile strength and stiffness. Titanate fiber is a specially produced ceramic type filler.

X-ray opaque E-CTFE compounds

These compounds contain various fillers such as barium sulfate that are visible upon exposure to x-rays. 

Customized colored compounds are also available.

Proprietary Compounds 

Other compounds made from E-CTFE using special fillers can be made upon request to answer the needs for special engineering requirements.
