OVERVIEW of Chemours® PTFE 8A |
Chemours® PTFE 8A Sheets, Rods, Molded Tubes and Finished Parts are available from Professional Plastics.
Chemours® PTFE 8A is a free-flowing white powder composed of relatively large particles. It has high
bulk density and good powder flow. Its most unique features are improved moldability at lower
pressure and improved surface smoothness of finished parts.
The high bulk density and low compression ratio of Chemours® PTFE 8A permit the use of shallow molds
for small parts and complex shapes. Good powder flow is necessary for use in equipment that feeds
resin automatically, and for filling deep and narrow molds that are pressed isostatically. Reduced pressure
is an advantage for moldings with large surface area and for isostatic molding.
Chemours® PTFE 8A is often preferred for molding thick sheets and for isostatic moldings. It is sometimes
used for ram extrusion of rod and tubing with thicker cross sections.
