Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) is a melt-processable fluoropolymer known for its exceptional chemical resistance, high purity, and excellent electrical properties. With a fully fluorinated structure similar to PTFE—but with improved processability—FEP is widely used in applications requiring low friction, non-stick performance, and long-term durability.
Key Properties:
Outstanding chemical resistance, compatible with nearly all solvents, acids, and bases
Excellent electrical insulation, low dielectric constant, and high volume resistivity
Melt-processable, allowing extrusion, injection molding, and thermoforming
Very low coefficient of friction and excellent non-stick characteristics
Wide service temperature range, typically from –200°C to +200°C
High UV, weathering, and radiation resistance
Exceptional clarity and purity, ideal for high-performance tubing and films
Common Applications:
Wire and cable insulation for high-frequency, high-temperature, and corrosive environments
Tubing, liners, and films for chemical processing, semiconductor, and pharmaceutical sectors
Non-stick coatings, release films, and heat-seal applications
Pumps, valves, and fluid-handling components requiring chemical inertness
Aerospace and automotive components exposed to heat and harsh chemicals
Laboratory and analytical equipment requiring high purity and low extractables
