Why are perfluoropolyether resins that you don’t know are so expensive but still sought after by some industries?
December 25, 2021
Perfluoropolyether grease, for most companies engaged in lubricating grease production, do not necessarily have a lot of understanding, most people know that this is a relatively expensive grease.
Next, let me introduce some of the characteristics of perfluoropolyether grease to my friends. Why is it expensive? What other application areas choose perfluoropolyether grease?
What is perfluoropolyether grease
First of all, the material lubricity of perfluoropolyether grease is very good. It is a highly chemically stable perfluoropolyether oil (PFPE) thickened by polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). It is a kind of Liquid synthetic polymer, white perfluoropolyether grease made with special additives.
Here, I want to popularize that high chemical stability is a very important indicator for chemical products. Therefore, its good chemical stability is a very important advantage and characteristic, and it also has the following advantages:
Good high temperature resistance
High loadability
Good chemical inertness
Therefore, perfluoropolyether high temperature grease has better high temperature resistance and high load than general products, and can meet the high temperature and high load lubrication in the machinery industry and auto parts. In addition to being used in these environments, the excellent chemical inertness of perfluoropolyether grease makes it easy to lubricate between chemically corroded bearings and gears. It has excellent durability and low volatility. Perfluoropolyether grease is used in space. Lubricants for components have been around for decades!
