Polytetrafluoroethylene (abbreviation PTFE, sometimes also polytetraflouroethene)

Polytetrafluoroethylene (abbreviation PTFE, sometimes also polytetraflouroethene) is a fully fluorinated polymer. This plastic is commonly referred to under the trade name of Teflon® by the company DuPont.  Other commonly used trade names of other PTFE manufacturers are Dyneon PTFE (formerly Hostaflon) and Gore-Tex for PTFE membranes. The Teflon® PTFE coating is applied following mechanical and/or chemical pretreatment and is subsequently densified through sintering (temperature treatment). Teflon® PTFE is used as non-stick coating for many technical applications.

Rhenotherm Plastic Coating GmbH provides PTFE coatings on a job-coating basis and is a certified job coater according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2000.
