About PTFE

Chemical Resistance

Chemical Resistance

PTFE is virtually inert to all chemicals including fuming sulfuric and nitric acids, aggressive peroxides, amines, antioxidants and methanol. The only materials known to react with PTFE are molten elemental alkali metals, ignited finely divided metal powders, Fluorine and Chmical trifluoride. If you are ever unsure of the suitability for PTFE to be used with the media in your application please speak to your Kongsberg Automotive representative.
