PFA

Get to know Everflon™ PFA.

Everflon™ PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) fluoroplastics are available in pellet or powder form, and combine the processing ease of conventional thermoplastic resins with the high performance properties of Everflon™ PTFE.

Everflon™ PFA fluoroplastics are processed by conventional melt-extrusion techniques and by injection, compression, rotational, transfer and blow-molding processes. Everflon™ PFA fluoroplastics are ideal for wire coating and molding a wide variety of end use articles and components .

Products fabricated from genuine Everflon™ PFA are unaffected by most chemicals and feature superior electrical, low friction and mechanical properties and offer a wide service temperature range, up to 260°C (500°F).

Everflon™ PFA provides superior creep resistance at high temperatures, excellent low temperature toughness and exceptional flame resistance. Special grades of Everflon™ PFA (E series) have been developed to meet the rigorous demands of the semiconductor industry for purity, low extractable levels and minimal outgassing.

Additional grades of Everflon™ PFA are available to support roto molding and other specialty applications.

Chemical Compatibility	Electrical Reliability	Wide Thermal Range

Why is Everflon™ PFA.
Everflon™ PFA is chemically inert and solvent-resistant to virtually all chemicals, except molten alkali metals, gaseous fluorine, and certain complex halogenated compounds, such as chlorine trifluoride at elevated temperatures and pressures. It also has low permeability to liquids, gases, moisture, and organic vapors.	Superior reliability and retention of properties over large areas of film • High dielectric strength, over 260 kV/mm for 0.025-mm film (6500 V/mil for 1-mil film) • No electric tracking, non-wettable, and non-charring • Very low power factor and dielectric constant, only slight change over wide ranges of temperature and frequency	• Continuous service temperature: –240 to 260 °C (–400 to 500 °F) • Melting range: 300 to 310 °C (572 to 590 °F) • Heat sealable
Mechanical Toughness	Long Time Weatherability	Exceptional Flame Resistance
• Superior anti-stick and low frictional properties • High resistance to impact and tearing • Useful physical properties at cryogenic temperatures	• Inert to outdoor exposure • High transmittance of ultraviolet and all, but far, infrared	Non-flammable (Limiting Oxygen Index >95%) and self-extinguishing.
