ECTFE is a fluoropolymer was designed to provide better chemical resistance for applications exposed to more corrosive environments. ECTFE is a brand name of the company Halar.
ETFE coatings are a copolymer of Ethylene and TetraFluoroEthylene better known as Tefzel. Although not fully fluorinated, ETFE coatings have excellent chemical resistance and can operate at 150°C.
FEP differs from PTFE as it is melt-processable which means it can be used to produce smooth, non-porous coatings with excellent abrasion resistance.
A polymer that contains a Fluorine atom - the F in PTFE for example.
A fluorocarbon-based polymer. In 1938, PTFE was discovered (branded "Teflon" by the company that created it), the first fluoropolymer which is characterised by a high resistance to solvents, acids and bases. PFA, FEP, ETFE and ECTFE are other fluoropolymers offered by AFT Fluorotec.
Halar is the brand name of ECTFE created by Solvay Speciality Polymers.
PFA coatings melt and flow during baking to provide non-porous films and increased permeation resistance.
The function of the primer is to increase the bond strength of the subsequent topcoat to the surface, increases paint durability, and/or provide an extra layer of corrosion protection.
PolyTetraFluoroEthylene coatings, often referred to as Teflon or Xylan coatings offer a tough inert heat-resistant finish with almost complete chemical inertness.
Xylan is the umbrella brand name for products sold by Whitford.
