What is PTFE?
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE): Everything You Need to KnowPolytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE is the commonly used versatile, high-performance fluoropolymer made up of carbon and fluorine atoms. One of the common applications of this polymer is non-stick coating in kitchen cookware (pans, baking trays etc.), hence, you can easily find this in your kitchen.
Apart from used in the kitchen, PTFE is used as a cost-effective solution for industries ranging from oil & gas, chemical processing, industrial to electrical/electronic and construction sector, etc.

Why recycle PTFE?
The basic properties of PTFE that make it an interesting material with high commercial value are:
Exception chemical resistance
Good resistance to heat and low temperature
Good electrical insulating power in hot and wet environments
Good resistance to light, UV and weathering
Low coefficient of friction
Low dielectric constant/dissipation factor
Strong anti-adhesion properties
Flexibility
Good fatigue resistance under low stress
Availability of food, medical and high-purity grades
Low water absorption

Where can you find PTFE use?
Fluorinated thermoplastics are only used for high performance applications related to high heat, low temperature, chemical inertness, high purity, non-sticking and self-lubricating properties. Further high purity grades are used in semiconductor, pharmaceutical and other similar sectors.
Due to its special chemical and physical properties, PTFE is widely applied in the chemical, electrical/electronic, construction, architectural, and automotive industries.

Applications of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)

PTFE Plastic Pulverizer
PTFE disc pulverizers of the PMMF series are available with disc diameter from 300 to 1000 mm. These pulverizers are high speed, precision grinders for the processing of medium-hard, impact resistant and friable materials, such as PVC, LLDPE, LDPE, HDPE, PP, PC, etc. The material to be pulverized is feeded by a vibrating feeder and then comes into grinding chamber at the center of a vertically fixed grinding disc which is mounted concentrically with an identical high speed rotating disc. Because of the centrifugal force, it carries the material through the grinding chamber, and the end plastic powder is collected by an air blower and cyclone system with an airlock. We can be equipped with one piece of grinding discs or grinding segments according to customers’ special requirements.
