PFA: Teflon® PFA coatings and treatments

PFA coatings are particularly suitable for improving non-stick properties, sliding and chemical resistance.

The advantages of Teflon® PFA coatings

Teflon PFA is a fluoropolymer derived from PTFE, the progenitor of the fluoropolymer family. PFA, also known as perfluoroalkoxy alkane, is normally found in the form of a partially crystalline powder.

Properties of Teflon PFA

Like the other two polymers, PTFE and FEP, Teflon PFA is a thermoplastic and therefore creates a coating with a non-porous surface and excellent non-stick, sliding and chemical resistance properties. Teflon PFA coatings and treatments also give the material extraordinary high temperature resistance. In fact, Teflon PFA can work continuously at temperatures of 260°C and intermittently up to 310°C.
