 PROPERTIES OF AFLASTM (TFE/P)

 
Description: Excellent resistance to acids, bases, water and amines. Widely used in oil fields.

Limitations: Avoid polar solvents and aromatic fuels. Compression set performance may be too high for some applications.

Chemistry: Copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and propylene.

Trade Names: AFLAS®, FLUORAZ®

Temperature Range: -10° to 200°C  (14° to 400°F)

Typical Uses: Coater/Developer, Resist Stripping, CMP, Cleaning

 

 A unique fluoroelastomer based on a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and propylene (P) was developed by Asahi Glass (Japan) and sold under the AFLAS trade name. TFE/P polymers exhibit improved chemical resistance to base and amine chemical environments compared to traditional FKM polymers.
