Modified PolyTetraFluoroEthylene (mPTFE) is a chemically modified form of PTFE. Less than 1% of the fluorine atoms in the PTFE chain are substituted by a perfluoroalkoxy. Modified PTFE has a lower molecular weight than PTFE, which means that particles fuse better.
As a result, the end product is more compact, with fewer voids, and with better weldability than PTFE. The perfluoroalkoxy modifier in modified PTFE acts as an inhibitor of crystallization, ensures better distribution of the crystallites in the amorphous matrix and therefore, the cold flow is drastically reduced.
Depending on the percentage of modifiers, PB11000 materials can be used in applications that require high creep resistance or high flexibility.
