Verstärktes Polytetrafluorethylen (PTFE)

Goodfellow provides high-quality reinforced polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) for specialized applications in research and industry, offering this advanced material in multiple forms to meet specific needs. Reinforced PTFE is known for its exceptional chemical inertness, low friction coefficient, and high temperature resistance, which are further improved by the addition of reinforcing agents. These properties make reinforced PTFE particularly valuable in industries such as chemical processing, semiconductor manufacturing, and food processing. In chemical processing, reinforced PTFE is used for gaskets, seals, and lining materials, benefiting from its resistance to aggressive chemicals and high temperatures. The semiconductor industry utilizes reinforced PTFE in the production of high-purity components and fluid handling systems, taking advantage of its non-contaminating nature. In food processing, reinforced PTFE finds applications in non-stick coatings and conveyor belts. Emerging technologies leveraging reinforced PTFE include advanced bearings for extreme environments and high-performance membranes for water treatment and fuel cells. Goodfellow's reinforced PTFE supports cutting-edge research in materials science, particularly in the areas of tribology and surface engineering. The unique combination of properties in reinforced PTFE ensures its continued importance in both scientific exploration and industrial innovation, especially in applications requiring chemical inertness and low friction under demanding conditions.
