Polytetrafluoroethylene fibers

Fibers can also be made using specific conditions employing blow molding of a melt. They can also be mechanically made by machining. Thus, polytetrafluoroethylene fibers are made by machining a thin film from a block of the polymer and then drawing the film at 300°C. 

Vinyl fibers are those man-made fibers spun from polymers or copolymers of substituted vinyl monomers and include vinyon, vinal, vinyon-vinal matrix (polychlal), saran, and polytetrafluoroethylene fibers. Acrylic, modacrylic and polyolefin—considered in Chapters 8 and 9—are also formed from vinyl monomers, but because of their wide usage and particular properties they are usually considered as separate classes of fibers. The vinyl fibers are generally specialty fibers due to their unique properties and uses. AH of these fibers have a polyethylene hydrocarbon backbone with substituted functional groups that determine the basic physical and chemical properties of the fiber.
