Advantages
Highest tensile strength of all processable
fluorocarbons. Good radiation resistance
(better than other fluorocarbons).
Melt processable. Good abrasion resistance.
Good general chemical resistance,
although inferior to PTFE. Maximum
use temperature 150°C (300°F).
Useful piezo-electric properties.
Disadvantages
High dissipation factor. Processing
machinery needs to be very clean.
Normally cannot reinforce with glass
fibres due to decomposition initiated
by boron. Poor resistance to fuming
acids.
