Teflon™ FFR (fluoropolymer foam resin) was developed specifically for wire insulation in high data rate applications. FFR resin produces an insulation with a reduced dielectric constant, allowing for thinner insulation constructions. In addition, because this reduces dissipation factor, the resulting insulated wire generally has lower capacitance and attenuation.
Wire insulation produced with genuine Teflon™ FFR can achieve velocity factors (Vp) approaching 90%, whereas standard Teflon™ FEP insulated wire typically yields a 65%-70% (Vp). In addition, because of its good adhesion characteristics to the conductor, return losses are greatly improved.

FFR resin not only produces a superior high performance dielectric insulation in smaller high data rate applications but it also allows for miniaturization, weight savings and improved material usage rates.
While FFR is considered a melt processable resin, it does require specialized equipment to process. Please contact Fluorogistx for additional information on processing and equipment requirements for this material.

Teflon™ PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) is available as a white powder, often called fine powder. Teflon™ PTFE fine powders are generally converted into usable articles (shapes, wire insulation and tapes, etc) via paste extrusion, followed by post extrusion heating to remove residual hydrocarbon solvents and to increase material density.
Products manufactured with genuine Teflon™ PTFE fine powder are rated for continuous service temperatures up to 260°C (500°F).
The properties of Teflon™ PTFE fine powder are very similar to those of standard Teflon™ PTFE granular material.
See available Teflon™ Fine Powder PTFE products below.
Teflon™ PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) granular fluoropolymers are ideal for compression molding a wide variety of components and shapes; such as rods, tubes and sheets. Products fabricated from genuine Teflon™ PTFE are unaffected by most chemicals and feature superior electrical, low friction and mechanical properties.
Products manufactured with genuine Teflon™ PTFE are rated for continuous service at 260°C (500°F).
Teflon™ PTFE granular fluoropolymer resins are considered non-melts and are generally converted to finished articles in a three step process. 1) The resin is compression molded into a shape form (rod, tube, sheet). 2) The shape, once removed from the mold, is then sintered above its melting point to form a solid PTFE billet. 3) The solid PTFE billet is then machined into the finished article.
Teflon™ PTFE granular fluoropolymers are also available in chemically modified grades (NXT). The modified Teflon™ NXT materials deliver valuable additional capabilities while retaining the exceptional chemical, thermal, and low-friction properties of conventional Teflon™ PTFE fluoropolymer resins.
Specifically, Teflon™ NXT granular fluoropolymers exhibit enhanced permeation resistance, a smoother less porous surface finish, improved bond strength and weldability, and improved dielectric breakdown strength.

Zonyl™ PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) fluoroadditives are finely divided white powders of (PTFE) resin. They are typically added in small quantities to other solid or liquid materials to improve abrasion resistance and lubricity. They are a separate and distinctive product line, very different from standard Teflon™ PTFE molding and extrusion resins. The differences include a lower molecular weight, smaller particle sizes (2 to 20 μm) and different particle shapes. Zonyl™ fluoroadditive powders are designed primarily for use as minority components in mixtures with other solid or liquid materials. Even in small quantities, they can impart some of the high performance properties of PTFE to various host materials.
