Fluoropolymer Increasingly more technical applications in aggressive environments, in terms of temperature, chemical agents and atmospheric conditions, made it possible for fluoropolymers to find more space on the market. These polymers offer extremely high performance, though at elevated costs regarding both raw materials and production. Depending on the bond between carbon and fluorine, and their arrangement in the molecular structure, one can have varying products with different characteristics. Concerning chemical resistance and use at low and high temperatures, the father of all fluoropolymers is PTFE, which demonstrates almost complete inertia towards most known chemical reagents and has work temperatures that range from -260 to +260 'C. After PTFE, these other fluoropolymers can be found, in order of importance: PFA, FEP, and PVDF.
