What is Teflon made of?

Previous / Next

Teflon refers to polytetrafluoroethylene, commonly known as the ‘King of Plastics’, a high-molecular-weight polymer produced by the polymerisation of tetrafluoroethylene monomers. It is a white, waxy, semi-transparent material with excellent heat and cold resistance, capable of long-term use at temperatures ranging from -180°C to 260°C. This material is resistant to acids, alkalis and various organic solvents, and is virtually insoluble in all solvents. Furthermore, polytetrafluoroethylene is highly heat-resistant and has an extremely low coefficient of friction; consequently, in addition to its lubricating properties, it serves as an ideal coating for the inner lining of easy-to-clean water pipes.
