ECTFE (Ethylene Chlorotrifluoroethylene)

ECTFE, fully written as ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene, is a partially fluorinated and chlorinated thermoplastic polymer also known as a fluoropolymer. Due to its thermoplastic nature, ECTFE exhibits excellent processability, enabling welding capabilities. ECTFE is renowned for its exceptionally high chemical resistance. Originally designed, produced, and used to provide chemical resistance in severe corrosion applications, ECTFE also boasts excellent electrical properties. Additionally, it demonstrates good weather and radiation resistance and has a very low permeation rate.
