| DuPont™ Teflon® PTFE NXT85 is a free-flowing, pelletized, chemically modified granular resin (its equivalent fine-cut resin is Teflon® NXT 75). It provides superior processing characteristics in addition to properties of chemically modified resins. This resin offers excellent powder flow and high bulk density. When properly processed, Teflon® PTFE NXT85 exhibits the superior properties typical of the fluoropolymer resins: nonaging characteristics, chemical inertness, heat resistance, toughness and flexibility, low coefficient of friction, nonstick characteristics, negligible moisture absorption, and weather resistance. In addition to typical properties of fluoropolymers, this chemically modified resin offers weldability, improved resistance to deformation under load, increased resistance to permeation of chemicals, and a higher dielectric breakdown strength. It provides a high degree of weldability for applications where the use of elevated temperature and pressure are limited. Chemours was formed from former DuPont performance chemicals businesses, including DuPont Fluoroproducts, in 2015. |
