Fluoroplastics
Fluoroplastics are polymer materials with excellent properties of non-cohesion(non-stick), low frictionality (slippery), heat resistance, weatherability, chemical resistance, and electric insulation.
We deal with fluoroplastics products called "CHUKOH FLO™" developed by Chukoh Chemical Industries, Ltd. The company has worked for membrane structures such as BIG EGG in Tokyo.
Major types and properties of fluoroplastics
-
PTFEPolytetrafluoroethylene
Melting point327℃coefficient of dynamic friction(0.69MPa 3m/min)0.1maximum temperature of continuous duty260℃
This is the most general fluoroplastics with the best properties such as non-cohesion.
PTFE resins are used for various products such as fabrics (glass fluoroplastic sheets), adhesive tapes, belts, and others. -
PFAPerfluoroalkoxy Alkane
Melting point310℃coefficient of dynamic friction（0.69MPa 3m/min）0.2maximum temperature of continuous duty260℃
It ranks with the properties of PTFE that enables melt process of complicated shapes.
It is an essential resin in semiconductor manufacturing industries, such as wafer baskets, tubes, joints, and others. -
FEPPerfluoro Ethylene-Propene Copolymer
Melting point260℃coefficient of dynamic friction（0.69MPa 3m/min）0.3maximum temperature of continuous duty200℃
Although heat resistance is rather inferior, other properties are nearly the same as other resins.
It is used for wire-covering and insulation films, and others. -
ETFEEthylene-Tetrafluoroethylene Copolymer
Melting point270℃coefficient of dynamic friction（0.69MPa 3m/min）0.4maximum temperature of continuous duty150℃
It has mechanical strength and radiation resistance with good workability.
It is mainly used for wire covering, mold release films.
Wide variety of product lineup tailored to customer needs
-
Conveyer belts
Taking advantage of characteristics of fluoroplastics such as heat resistance and non-cohesion, fluoroplastics are used for manufacturing line belts including food manufacturing, plastic film manufacturing, and productions of rubber and foam products.
(We can provide optimum proposals by order production based on the customer’s devices or products. General belts by urethane resin are also available as well as fluoroplastic belts.) -
Heat seals (adhesive tapes)
For the coating of heat-seal crimping parts (for separating material), there are adhesive tapes, adhesive sheets, or sealer belt that is processed as belt state.
(Wide variety of density/width is available based on usage.) -
Fabric
This is a material of coating fluoroplastics on glass cloth and aramid cloth in our special method.
It is used as separating sheets for heat seal or press section.
There are many other examples of taking advantage of heat resistance and non-cohesion, such as applying on the steel plates for baking cookies or cakes. -
Tube
Several fluoroplastics are molded in thin tube.
We can provide wide variety of lineups based on the usage such as chemical resistance, heat proof, or non-cohesion.
It is mainly employed in chemical plants, semiconductor-fabrication equipment, food manufacturing devices, and others. -
Coating
We can apply fluoroplastic properties onto base materials by baking finishes.
By receiving base materials from customers, we can apply coating with an optimum selection of resins through the best processing method.
Thick lining processing is also available with excellent anti-corrosion. We can provide from small sized pipes to large sized tanks. -
Membrane material
This is the first product of permanent roof membrane material in Japan developed by Chukoh Chemical Industries, Ltd. It is heat resistant with excellent wheatherability.
Also, due to light transmittance, it allows natural light through to indoors.
(This is a recognized building material by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Japan.) -
Others
Fluoroplastics also have other properties such as ultra violet resistance and cold tolerance that they are utilized for belt devices for UV print or UV drying.
We make proposals among our wide variety of product lineups to meet customer needs.
Our company has a deep business partnership with Chukoh Chemical Industries, Ltd. as a distributor in conjunction of glass cloth by our parent company of Nittobo.
Together with Chukoh Chemical Industries, Ltd., we provide best solutions respond to customer needs.
