Product DescriptionDuPont™ Teflon® PTFE 60 X is a polytetrafluoroethylene finepowder resin used primarily for paste extrusion. Teflon® PTFE 60 Xoffers the excellent combination of properties typical of theTeflon® fluoroplastic resins:
chemical inertness to nearly all industrial chemicals andsolvents
superior in-use thermal stability (low thermal instabilityindex)
exceptional dielectric properties, stable with frequency andtemperature
toughness and flexibility
low coefficient of friction
non-stick characteristics
negligible moisture absorption
excellent weather resistance
service temperature up to 260 °C (500 °F)
useful properties at -240 °C (-400 °F)
moderate stiffness and high ultimate elongation
Teflon® PTFE 60 X is designed for processing at low to mediumreduction ratios of 10:1 to 300:1. It is designed to facilitate theproduction of high-quality, low-density tape and beading.
Teflon® PTFE 60 X meets the requirements of ASTM D 4895-10, Type I,Grade 2, Class A.
