Roll in ECTFE AB natural

ECTFE is a partly fluorinated fluoropolymer that is much stiffer and harder than PFA and FEP. It stands up to chemically aggressive media and handles alkaline environments above pH 10, where many other plastics give way. This roll has aramid fabric on the back, the code AB, which gives the adhesive its grip, since fluoropolymers cannot be glued.

The stiffness shows in the figures: the tensile modulus is 1 650 MPa against 450 for PFA, and the yield strength sits at 31 MPa. The material is tough, the notched impact strength is above 100 kJ/m². The dielectric strength is 23 kV/mm and the Vicat softening point 118 degrees. The temperature range is -40 to +150 degrees, so ECTFE does not take as much cold or heat as the fully fluorinated plastics.

The roll is supplied in natural and is used mainly for lining steel tanks and in composite construction against glass fiber reinforced plastic, where its low permeation is the whole point. The aramid side is laid against the load-bearing substrate. We cut the roll to the length and width you need.
