Fluoropolymer Resins, Compounds, Specialty Materials, Chemical Membranes and More

AGC Chemicals Americas offers the broadest range of high-performance fluoropolymers in the world including fluoroelastomers, PTFE, PFA and ETFE resins, fluoropolymer compounds, and chemical membranes. We also produce specialty performance materials that address the unique requirements of specific applications such as paint, textiles, facades and cosmetics. These include greenhouse films, ETFE films, FEVE resins, fluorinated solvents and foam blowing agents, anti-smudge coatings, silica gels, amorphous fluoropolymers, polyols and intermediates. Our higher performance and environmentally friendly fluorochemicals provide cutting-edge solutions to an ever-changing world.

Fluon® ETFE resins are melt-processable copolymers composed of ethylene and tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE). Their superior physical toughness and resistance to chemicals, UV and extreme temperatures make these resins ideally suited for a wide range of high performance products and components such as industrial wiring and electronics.
ETFE resins are also resistant to ultraviolet light, so they are ideal for outdoor use. A 16,000-hour accelerated weathering test (comparable to 30 years’ exposure) produced almost no signs of film deterioration.ETFE resins are available in pellet or powder form for processing using the following methods:
* Extrusion molding
* Injection molding
* Blow molding
* Electrostatic coating

ETFE resin compounds are also available in a variety of color masterbatch concentrates, custom reinforcements or conductivity levels.
