PTFE Alternatives: When Should You Choose PFA, FEP, or ETFE for Injection Molding?
You love PTFE’s slickness and chemical resistance, but need complex parts? PTFE’s inability to melt process hinders injection molding. Finding a workable alternative is crucial for efficient production. PFA1, FEP2, and ETFE are melt-processable fluoropolymers3 offering alternatives to PTFE for injection molding. PFA closely matches PTFE’s heat and chemical resistance.
