Since the late 1940s, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) has grown in popularity throughout the years. PTFE doesn’t behave like any ordinary polymer. It boasts many unique properties that are often difficult to replicate. However, its processing limitations and the fact that it lacks some vital properties for certain applications have companies seeking alternatives to this thermoplastic. Over the years, new polymers have been developed to maintain similar PTFE properties while also filling in performance gaps. Let’s review some of these alternative thermoplastics to PTFE.
