Types of Chemours Teflon® Coatings

Teflon Coating Supplier

Chemours Teflon®’s industrial coating can be used on carbon steel, aluminum, stainless steel, steel alloys, brass, and magnesium as well as non-metallics such as glass, fiberglass, some rubber, and plastics. Optimum adhesion is obtained by roughening the surface before applying the coating. Sun Coating Company is a leading Teflon coating supplier.

Teflon® PTFE

The Teflon PTFE Coating, or PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) nonstick coatings are two-coat (primer/topcoat) systems. These products have the highest operating temperature of any Fluoropolymer 260° C/500° F, and an extremely low coefficient of friction, good abrasion resistance, and good chemical resistance. PTFE is available only in water-based liquid form.

Teflon® FEP

Teflon FEP Coatings or the FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene copolymer) nonstick coatings melt and flow during baking to provide nonporous films. These coatings provide excellent chemical resistance. In addition to low friction, FEP coatings also have excellent nonstick properties. The maximum use temperature is 204° C/400° F. FEP is Available in water-based liquid and powder forms.

Teflon® PFA

PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) nonstick Teflon coatings melt and flow during baking to provide nonporous films. PFA Teflon Coatings offers the additional benefits of higher continuous use temperature of 260° C/500° F, film thickness up to 40 mils, and greater toughness than PTFE or FEP. This combination of properties makes PFA an excellent choice for a wide variety of uses. PFA is available in both water-borne liquid and powder forms.

Teflon® ETFE

ETFE is a copolymer of ethylene and tetrafluoroethylene and is also sold under the Tefzel® trademark. Although not fully fluorinated, ETFE has excellent chemical resistance and can operate continuously at 149° C/300° F. This resin is the toughest of the fluoropolymers and can be applied at film builds up to 40 mils. ETFE is available in powder form only.

Teflon®-S One Coat

These solvent-based liquid coating are formulated with special blends of fluoropolymers and other high-performance resins to improve toughness and abrasion resistance. Because the film components stratify during baking, most of the fluoropolymer properties (such as low friction and nonstick character) are retained.

Teflon®-S Dry Lubricant

Dry lubricant coatings are special versions of Teflon®-S technology designed to provide lubrication under high pressure. These products are solvent-based, one coat systems that are usually cured between 260° C/700° F.

CHEMOURS TEFLON COATINGS

Teflon® coatings and coating services are unmatched by any other engineered material. Chemours Teflon industrial coatings spray on like paint and bake to a tough, durable, inert finish. Their versatility, unique properties, and the myriad benefits they bring allow almost unlimited use. Over the years, Chemours technology has extended the family of Teflon finishes to ensure performance attributes meet almost every design need. 

NON-STICK TEFLON COATINGS / FEP COATINGS / PFA COATINGS

Chemours Teflon coatings display both oleophobic and hydrophobic properties. With PFA coatings and FEP coatings, sticky materials become non–adherent. Sun Coating Company provides Non-Stick Coating Services to maintain the life of products and machining.

Liquids are repelled. Surface energies are very low, which means better product manufacturing, ease in cleaning, and less downtime, and maintenance. 

LOW FRICTION TEFLON COATINGS / PTFE COATINGS

Friction is a system–dependent parameter determined by speed and load, the distance of travel, counterface, temperature, and more. With Chemours Teflon coatings, and PTFE coatings, coefficients of friction (static or dynamic) are low and provide excellent means of dry film lubrication. 

HEAT RESISTANCE OF TEFLON COATINGS

Teflon finishes display temperature stability from cryogenic up to 500 Fahrenheit (260 Celsius) depending on the product, allowing them a wide range in use with outstanding protection from corrosion.

 INDUSTRIAL TEFLON COATING APPLICATIONS 

Industrial Chemours Teflon coatings can be found in all areas of automotive and transportation, baking, food processing and food packaging, hot plate welding, heat sealing, packaging, paint and glue fixtures, thermoforming, and more.
