Virgin PTFE :

The chemical resistance of PTFE is excellent. It is stable in most aggressive and corrosive media, exceptions being liquid or dissolved alkali metals, flourine and other extremely potent oxidisers.


PTFE is not chemically resistive to:-
► Moltem or dissolved Alkali metals – Sodium, Potassium, Rubidium, Cesium, Francium
► Fluorine Gas
► Fluorine compounds & complexes at elevated temperature

Fillled PTFE Compositions :

The resistance of Filled PTFE compositions to number of Chemicals is given below. In general carbon and glass filled compositions give better performance in chemical service.
