Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Perfluoropolyethers (PFPE) is a kind of synthetic polymer which is liquid at room temperature. It is mainly used as lubricant for space mechanical components.
The main chain of perfluoropolyether is composed of - CF2 - O - CF2 - such ether chain, which is different from the perfluoroethylene chain of - cf2cf2cf2 - because of its flexibility, low glass transition temperature and wide range of common liquid temperature (from freezing point to boiling point). On the other hand, due to the strong electron absorption effect of fluorine element, the polymer does not show ether property, so it has good heat resistance, chemical stability, oxidation stability and complete incombustibility.
