Fluoro GE 125

CAS Number
9002-84-0
EC Number
618-337-2
Chemical Name
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
Chemical Family
Fluoropolymers

Fluoro GE 125 is a moderate molecular weight sub-micron polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) micropowder with a high surface area. Fluoro GE designates a series of sub-micron PTFE powders made from emulsion grade virgin PTFE. This series covers a range of molecular weights which determine dispersibility, thickening and performance properties. Due to the small particle size, the GE products have a larger specific surface area when compared to other PTFE.
