FluoroGrip® – E is a durable fluoropolymer film with excellent abrasion resistance, chemical durability, and a wide temperature range. Its low surface energy and heat stability make it ideal for linings, release surfaces, and material handling in harsh conditions.
FluoroGrip® – E fluoropolymer films and linings are manufactured from ethylene-chlorotrifluoroethylene. This material offers the outstanding performance of a fluoropolymerfilm over a temperature range from cryogenic -200°C (-328°F) to 164°C (325°F), depending upon adhesive used.
FluoroGrip® – E film provides the highest abrasion resistance of any fluoropolymer film available. This film has superior
chemical resistance and very high tensile strength and flexural modulus.
FluoroGrip® – E is available standard with an advanced pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) of acrylic or high temperature resistant silicone PSA. Special chemical resistant adhesives are available. Consult Integument Technologies for specific. material recommendations.
FluoroGrip® – E is available with either single-sided or doublesided surface plasma modification treatment for a variety of uses.
FluoroGrip® – E films offer low surface energy, making them an excellent choice for release applications such as tanks and hoppers where both abrasion resistance and low surface energy is desirable. Variety of thicknesses and abrasion resistance make it an excellent material for coil coating applications.
The combination of heat stability, abrasion resistance, low surface energy and barrier properties provides physical performance especially suited for material handling equipment for dry goods and service conditions where abrasion and chemical and temperature resistance is required.
Single-side modification makes the material suitable as a weldable lining when low surface energy is demanded.
Double-sided treatment is especially useful when installations require seams, overlaps or the application of chemical resistant coatings or top toppings. The double-sided modification makes it an ideal material for pipe wraps and tapes and immersion linings. The modification also creates a superior surface for use as a chemical and temperature resistant lining and paint replacement film and lining in abrasive high temperature and chemical applications.
