Teflon™ AF High-Performance Resins
Teflon™ AF (amorphous fluoropolymers) resins stand apart from other fluoropolymers due to the versatility of their characteristics.
Teflon™ AF resins have:
- Solubility in select solvents
- High gas permeability and compressibility, and creep resistance
- Low thermal conductivity
- The lowest dielectric constant and index of refraction of any known solid polymer
- Good optical clarity and strength
Teflon™ AF resin applications span a wide range of industries, which include use in:
- Gas separation membranes
- Fiber optic core and cladding
- Optical lenses
- Anti-reflective coatings
- Mold release coating
- Hydrophobic (water-repellent) coating
- Molded- or solution-processed parts
- Deep UV-resistant films and components
- Interlayer dielectric resin
