Fluorocarbons - The family
of plastics including polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE);
polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE); polyvinylidene
and fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP). They are characterized
by properties including good thermal and chemical resistance
and nonadhesiveness, and possess a low dielectric constant.
Depending upon which of the fluorocarbons are used,
they are available as molding materials, extrusion materials,
dispersions, film or tape.
