Product Overview
I. Material Definition
Our PCTFE Homopolymer Resin is a premium fluoropolymer synthesized via controlled polymerization of chlorotrifluoroethylene monomers. Its unique molecular structure—a carbon backbone substituted with fluorine and chlorine atoms—confers exceptional resistance to cryogenic temperatures, aggressive chemicals, and mechanical stress.
Designed for industries requiring absolute reliability (e.g., aerospace, energy, pharmaceuticals), this material integrates thermal stability (-273°C to 213°C), chemical inertness, and optical clarity, making it ideal for critical seals, laser components, and electrical systems.
