Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Hyflon® PFA P455X Perfluoroalkoxy  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Fluoropolymer; Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA)

Material Notes: Hyflon® PFA is a unique family of semi-crystalline, melt processable perfluoropolymers which combine excellent mechanical characteristics to unique properties such as chemical inertness, heat resistance, inherent flame resistance, low surface energy, and exceptional dielectric properties. Hyflon PFA resins have been designed to retain their properties over a wide range of temperatures from cryogenic to 250-260°C (482-500°F) and are the material of choice in applications such as linings in the Chemical Process Industry, Specialty Cables, Semiconductor Industry, Aerospace, and other challenging industries. This product is a low molecular weight, high melt flow rate resin designed for cable extrusion and injection molding. Hyflon® PFA P455X is an ASTM D3307-Type IV resin.
