Discovered in the 1930’s, PTFE is a well-known material that has excellent temperature, environmental andchemical resistance; and is used in many electrical, industrial, medical, and consumer applications. PTFEalso has very low surface energy — making it very slippery and naturally hydrophobic. In the late 1960’s,a process was developed to stretch PTFE film (known as expanded […]
