Clear PCTFE

Clear PCTFE

Clear PCTFE

(OP)
Does anyone know where I can get samples of clear PCTFE?

RE: Clear PCTFE

(OP)
Thanks Chris,

I don't think so (but I'm not sure).

ECTFE is Ethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene (Halar)

PCTFE is Polychlorotrifluoroethylene (Kel-f, or Neoflon, Aclar)

I'm also intested in rigid sheets (if thats possible) 1 to 3 mm in thickness.

Eventually, I'd be interested in injection molding it.

Regards.

RE: Clear PCTFE

You could talk to Diakin or Arkema they should be able to find you samples and a molder.

PCTFE can be found in sheets (boedeker has them) but I'm not sure I've seen clear ones for sale.

The properties are different in clear and opaque because of the crystalline/amorphous ratio.
