FEP MELT EXTRUDED FLUOROPOLYMER FILMS

TCI produces FEP films/foils from Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) resin using a melt extrusion casting process. TCI’s FEP films offer all the benefits of fluorinated films, such as high temperature and chemical resistance, non-stick properties, and superior dielectric performance. FEP foils are chemically inert and solvent resistant to most chemicals. They also have superior anti-stick and low friction properties. FEP films can be heat-sealed, thermoformed, laminated to various substrates, and serve as a melt adhesive. Our FEP foils have excellent light transmission and clarity while remaining free of plasticizers, processing aids, or additives. TCI FEP films are acceptable for food contact and meet the requirements of US Pharmacopeia protocol for USP class VI plastic.

FEP films are proven to be continuously effective in temperatures ranging -400°F to 400°F (-240°C to 205°C), with an intermittent service temperature up to 500°F (260°C). TCI offers FEP films ranging in thickness from 0.0005″ to 0.010″ (12 to 250 mμ), with a standard width up to 60” (1,524 mm). TCI can manufacture films with a thickness greater than 0.002” in widths up to 62” (1,575 mm) wide. Slit widths and bondable (plasma treated or chemically etched) surfaces are available upon request. Some materials may have specific limitations.
