Halar® ECTFE

Ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene (Halar) (ECTFE) has excellent chemical resistance to most chemicals including caustic. ECTFE can be used from -105°F (-76°C) to 302°F 150°C). To obtain good extrusion characteristics, this polymer is usually compounded with a small amount of extrusion aid. [Pg.41]

Halar ECTFE (ethylenechlorotrifluoroethylene) This material is an alternating copolymer of ethylene and chlorotrifluroethylene. This fluoropolymer withstands continuous exposure to extreme temperatures and maintains excellent mechanical properties across this entire range (from cryogenic temperatures to 180°C). It has excellent electrical properties and chemical resistance, having no known solvent at 121°C. It is also nonbuming and radiation-resistant. Its ease of processing affords a wide range of products. [Pg.496]

To solve this issue, a new Halar ECTFE with special UV scavenger fillers have been recently developed. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this film to protect UV-sensitive materials, the Halar ECTFE film with UV scavengers was laminated on PET and then placed in a QUV test chamber equipped with UV-B lamp centered at 313 nm. Figure 17.4 shows the effect of UV light on PET, that becomes yellowish, while the Halar film with UV scavengers has been able to effectively protect the PET film underneath and appears almost as transparent and uncolored as the sample before UV test.

The search for new membrane materials is of peculiar interest to carry out organic/ organic separations. When the feed contains particularly aggressive solvents, it is necessary to find membrane materials that are able to withstand such harsh environments. Simone et al. [122] prepared asymmetric dense membranes using a copolymer of ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE), commercialized by Solvay Advanced Polymers as Halar . ECTFE represents an exceptionally promising material for... [Pg.27]
