Dyneon Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
Dyneon PTFE a classic PTFE and
Dyneon TFM PTFE a second-generation
PTFE with improved properties
PTFE is the acronym for polytetrafluoro-
ethylene and is sold by Dyneon under
the Dyneon brand name. Dyneon
enters the market as a worldwide leader
in advanced fluoropolymer technology.
In addition, Dyneon has earned a reputa-
tion as the industry leader in providing
PTFE-based compounds that feature
exceptional physical properties providing
thousands of solutions for some of the
most difficult applications.
The unique properties of polytetrafluoro-
ethylene (PTFE) have made it an indis-
pensable material for modern industry.
PTFE offers the following exceptional
characteristics:
broad and excellent chemical
resistance
very wide service temperature range
excellent dielectric properties
no embrittlement or aging
Dyneon TFM PTFE allows new
designs and processing methods to be
used, especially in applications where
high safety and reliability standards are
specified. In comparison with classic
PTFE products Dyneon TFM PTFE
grades are distinguished by:
substantially lower deformation
under load
denser polymer structure
lower gas permeability
excellent weldability with
special methods
www.dyneon.com 2
PTFE is rapidly becoming the material of
choice where low friction, high durability,
excellent thermal properties and chemical
inertness characteristics are required.
Dyneon PTFE continues to meet
tough demands for new applications
and maintains proven success and high
reliability in the following industries:
Semiconductor
Well suited for use in manufacturing
equipment due to the ultra-smooth
surfaces of machined components
enabling reduced wash, rinse and dry
cycles, exceptionally low ion extractables
and fusability.
Chemical Processing/Plant Construction
Recognized for its corrosion protection
and as a sealing material because of its
broad and excellent chemical resistance
and continuous service temperature
ranging from -200 C to +260 C.
Machining/Automotive
Outstanding properties make it ideally
suitable for self-lubricating bearings,
sliding elements and seals, especially
with compounds.
Electrical/Electronic Engineering
Excellent electrical insulation properties,
very low dielectric constant, high thermal
stability and flame resistant properties.
Construction
Offers weathering resistance, non-stick
properties and does not support
combustion; used to advantage in
modern types of roof membrane.
Sliding bearings have proved themselves
over the years in the building construction
and civil engineering, for example as
bridge pads.
Consumer Markets
For coating household utensils and
engineering parts, the non-stick/slip pro-
perties and heat resistance are essential.

New Dyneon PTFE dispersions with
bimodal particle-size distribution

Significantly improved coating

performance obtained by using
DyneonTM PTFE dispersions
with bimodal particle-size
distribution:

improved film formation

far fewer pores
better gloss
better adhesion
lower processing costs
higher hardness

This principle is already being

successfully applied in various
Dyneon PTFE dispersions,
e.g. Dyneon TF 5050 R PTFE
for the formulation of coating
systems and impregnations.
Other products with bimodal
particle-size distribution are
under development.

Higher packing density with bimodal particle-size distribution.

The different-sized particles form a more tightly packed particle
arrangement and so produce a denser coating film.

Monomodal particle-size distribution

Dyneon TFM PTFE
A second-generation PTFE with improved properties
An important further development
on classic polytetrafluoroethylene
is Dyneon TFM PTFE,
a second-generation PTFE, which
represents a unique extension
to the Dyneon Fluoroplastics product
portfolio.

Dyneon TFM PTFE offers a

significantly improved property
profile:

substantially lower deformation

under load
denser polymer structure
with fewer voids
lower gas permeability
smoother surfaces of
machined parts
higher transparency
excellent weldability with
special methods

At the same time it retains the

exceptional properties of classic
PTFE:

very high thermal stability

broad and excellent chemical
resistance
The exceptional property profile of DyneonTM TFMTM PTFE is achieved
very wide service temperature
by chemical modification and a specially tailored molecular structure.
