making it suitable for harsh high-temperature environments.
- Superior Transparency: PFA offers better transparency than PTFE, enabling visual
inspection and fluid observation.
- Smooth Surface and Low Friction Coefficient: PFA has excellent non-stick and self-lubricating properties,
reducing friction and preventing debris adhesion.
- Excellent Electrical Insulation: PFA is an ideal high-frequency insulating material due to its
superior electrical insulation properties.
- Aging and Weather Resistance: PFA is stable in atmospheric conditions, with strong anti-aging
capabilities, suitable for outdoor and extreme applications.
- Strong Processability: PFA has good melt flow characteristics, suitable for injection
molding, extrusion, and various processing methods.
- Biocompatibility: Due to its physiological inertness, PFA can be used in
pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and the food industry, meeting
FDA and other international standards.
- Permeation Resistance: PFA has low permeability, offering excellent performance in gas
barriers and liquid sealing.
