Teflon™ FEP 100 is a melt-processible copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and hexafluoropropylene, without additives, that meets the requirements of ASTM D 2116 Type I. It offers the excellent combination of properties characteristic of Teflon™ fluoroplastic resins: non-aging characteristics, chemical inertness, exceptional dielectric properties, heat resistance, toughness and flexibility, low coefficient of friction, non-stick characteristics, negligible moisture absorption, low flammability, performance at temperature extremes, and excellent weather resistance. Teflon™ FEP 100 is a general-purpose grade and is used in many different applications. It can be melt-extruded, and is used for wire coating as primary insulation and, in certain cases, for cable jacketing. Cables insulated with Teflon™ FEP 100 have met the requirements of Underwriters Laboratory UL910 Steiner Tunnel tests for installation in plenums without metal conduits.Information provided by Chemours. |
