Surface propertiesThe unique non-stick properties of CHEMFAB® PTFE-coated fabrics are superior toall other polymer-coated materials. CHEMFAB® PTFE-coated fabrics have a verylow coefficent of friction, high lubricity and are easy to clean. These properties arebest illustrated by the frequent use of cooking release sheets in the baking andfood processing industries. The non-stick nature of CHEMFAB® PTFE surfaces isthe main reason for their use in a range of applications from heat sealingpackaging machines to industrial food processing.

• Non-stick and washable • Food-compliant & hygienic• Lowest coefficient of friction • Hydrophobic• Controlled porosity/openings

Resistance propertiesCHEMFAB® PTFE fabrics are inert against most chemicals and solvents. Theyretain their stability and properties at continuous operating temperaturesfrom -150°C to +260°C. If non-flammability or fire resistance is required,CHEMFAB® PTFE fabrics are the solution for many applications.

• Thermally stable from –150°C to 260°C • Chemically inert• Non-flammable/fire-resistant • UV and weather resistant

• Increased wear & void-free versions available

Electrical propertiesDue to the high dielectric strength and low dielectric constant, CHEMFAB® PTFEfabrics are often the ideal solution for electrical insulation. Due to theirtransparency to radio frequency signals and low electrical loss factors, CHEMFAB®

PTFE fabrics provide exceptional performance in microwave and other RFcuring/drying applications.

• High dielectric strength • Microwave-transparent

• Low electrical losses • Statically dissipative

Mechanical propertiesCHEMFAB® PTFE process conveyer belts offer the benefits of CHEMFAB® NON-STICK SOLUTIONS including improved penetration resistance, increasedmechanical strength and durable release. CHEMFAB® belts are very flexible andcompatible with most heating systems including IR, UV and RF. CHEMFAB® PTFEfabrics can be fabricated into endless belts with virtually no thickness increaseand high-strength splice constructions.

• High tensile and tear strength • Dimensionally stable• Puncture-resistant • Flexible, thermally weldable• Excellent heat transfer

Choose the fittest!CHEMFAB® NON-STICK SOLUTIONS are the result of pioneering work to develophigh-temperature, chemically-resistant, flexible advanced materials. We supportour customers with in-house technical capabilities that are unmatched in theindustry. Our research staff conduct extensive studies in composites andreinforcements, cast films, coatings, laminates and fabrication techniques. Pilotplant and scale-up facilities are available to prototype your material.
