NEOFLON ETFE Properties & features
NEOFLON ETFE is an alternating copolymer of ethylene and tetrafluoroethylene. Although not fully fluorinated, ETFE maintains high performance characteristics such as high temperature resistance (continuous service temperature of 150°C), very good electrical properties, and very good chemical inertness. And, ETFE is tougher and more abrasion resistant than the fully fluorinated products, making it ideally suited for demanding applications in Oil & Gas, Automotive, Aerospace and Photovoltaic. Daikin also offers ETFE that can be adhered to polyamide for multilayer tubing without the use of adhesive or tie layer.
