PTFE Chemical Profile

PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) is a synthetic fluoropolymer with the chemical formula (C₂F₄)ₙ. Discovered in 1938, it has become one of the most important industrial polymers due to its unique combination of properties.

The carbon-fluorine bond in PTFE is one of the strongest known in organic chemistry, contributing to its remarkable chemical resistance and thermal stability. When dispersed as micro-particles in grease formulations, PTFE creates a boundary lubrication film that dramatically reduces friction and wear.
