Teflon™ PFA HP Plus Fluoropolymer Resins
GENERAL
Introduction
As with any product, proper understanding of the capabilities and limitations of Teflon™ PFA fluoropolymer resins is essential for effective design and use of the material. The properties and characteristics of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins presented in this handbook are offered to assist in the design of parts made of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins and indicate the performance that can be designed into highly reliable, finished parts.
It is recommended that an experienced fabricator be involved early in the design stage because the method of fabrication may affect the product cost and properties of the finished article.
Products labeled with or without an X following the product name are equivalent, and all information in this document is applicable to both.
The Product
Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins possess the same exceptional chemical resistance, high purity, and protection against ionic contamination as Teflon™ PFA HP grades with the added benefits of improved flex life and chemical stress crack resistance. Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins meet the increasingly stringent requirements for ultra-reliable and non-contaminating parts, as well as unmatched fluorosurfactant developer resistance predominantly used in semiconductor manufacturing. The improved flex life and chemical resistance will reduce the cost of ownership of high purity fluid handling systems by reducing downtime caused by mechanical or chemical stresses. Parts molded with Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins have improved clarity and a smoother finish, which can further help prevent buildup of microbial contamination in water handling systems.
The enhanced resistance to environmental stress cracking makes Teflon™ PFA HP Plus a preferred resin when extended service is required in hostile environments involving chemical, thermal, and mechanical stress. Additionally, the exceptional purity of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins makes it suitable for applications that require improved color, lower extractable fluorides, and freedom from other foreign materials. This product contains no additives and is designed for hostile chemical
environments where purity in the parts-per-billion range is needed. Examples are in semiconductor manufacture, fluid handling systems for chemical processing or life sciences, and instrumentation for precise measurements of fluid systems.
The excellent thermal stability of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins results in better moldings and reduces metal pickup from processing equipment. Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins combine the processing ease of conventional thermoplastics with properties similar to those of polytetrafluoroethylene.
With Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins, components can last longer under dynamic loads and resist damage caused by ozonated fluids and fluorosurfactants. Combined with exceptional chemical, permeation, and stress creation resistance, this durability leads to a reduced cost of ownership. The high purity and fully fluorinated molecular end groups of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins can reduce contamination to protect process yields.
Properly processed products made from Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins provide the superior properties of fluoropolymer resins: chemical inertness, exceptional dielectric properties, heat resistance, toughness and flexibility, low coefficient of friction, nonstick characteristics, negligible moisture absorption, low flammability, performance at extreme temperatures, and excellent weather resistance.
In a flame situation, products of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins resist ignition and do not promote flame spread. When ignited by flame from other sources, their contribution to heat is very small and added at a slow rate with very little smoke.
The Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resin series is comprised of grades of resin with a range of melt flow rates (MFR) designed for various thermoplastic molding techniques, including tube and film extrusion, as well as injection, transfer, compression, and blow molding.

Flexural Modulus
The change in flexural modulus of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins with temperature is shown in Figure 3. The stiffness of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins decreases with increasing temperature.
Cold Flow
Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins, as with other plastic materials, experience deformation when subjected to tensile or compressive stresses. This deformation, or cold flow (creep), occurs well below the yield point of the resin and should be accommodated in design where fluoropolymer resins are used in compression, such as seals or gaskets.
The creep observed in a compressive situation is usually described as a percent strain under a given load. Figure 4 shows compressive strain under load. The figure illustrates the initial strain under load and the slow increase with time on prolonged exposure.
Similarly, fluoropolymers can creep in tension. The resistance to creep in tension is described as the apparent modulus. It describes the sum of the initial response to tensile stress plus a time-dependent response. The numbers shown in Table 1 are the tensile moduli after 10 hr under varying loads and temperatures. Figures 5, 6, and 7 show the tensile strain observed under various loads at various temperatures.

Hardness
The hardness of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins is 55, Durometer D scale. This result was obtained in tests run on compression molded panels according to ASTM D-2240.
Wear and Frictional Data
Frictional and wear tests have been run on Teflon™ PFA 940HP Plus fluoropolymer resin to indicate its level of performance (unfilled) in mechanical applications, such as bearings and seals. Tests were run on molded thrust bearings at 0.7 MPa (100 psi) and 50 ft/min against an AISI C-1018 steel washer finished to 16 ± 2 µin; tests were run at ambient conditions in air with no lubrication. Results are shown in Table 2.
ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES
Electrical applications include extruded coatings for numerous wire constructions, heater cables, heavy wall conduit, cable jacketing, and geophysical cables. Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins are also injection molded into electrical switch components, connector inserts, insulating bushings, and standoff insulators.
Dielectric Constant
The dielectric constant of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins is less than 2.10 over a wide range of frequencies, temperatures, and densities. The variation in dielectric constant at various frequencies is shown in Figure 8. The dielectric constant varies only 0.05 units over 9 orders of magnitude in frequency—among the lowest of all solid materials. There is no measurable effect of humidity on the dielectric constant of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins.

Dielectric Strength
The dielectric strength of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins is 80 kV/mm (2,000 V/mil) when measured on 0.25-mm (10-mil) films by ASTM D-149. Thin films of FEP resin give similar results. The dielectric
strength of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins is 21 kV/mm (530 V/mil) when measured on 3.12-mm (1/8-in) compression-molded plaques by ASTM D-149.
Dissipation Factor
The dissipation factor of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoro-polymer resins varies with frequency. This relationship is shown in Figure 9. Little variation with frequency is seen below 106 Hz. As frequencies increase to 1010 Hz, there is a steady increase in the dissipation factor.

Electrical Resistivity
The volume and surface resistivities of fluoropolymer resins are high and unaffected by time or temperature. Measurements of the volume resistivity of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins by the method outlined in ASTM D-257 gave a value of 1018 ohm-cm.
Arc Tracking
When Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins were tested by the method described in ASTM D-495, no tracking was observed for the duration of the test—indicating that the resin does not form a carbonized conducting path.
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Parts made of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins show a significant improvement in resistance to stress cracking by fluorosurfactants. Table 3 shows the resistance of Teflon™ PFA HP and PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins to fluorosurfactant. The improved chemical resistance of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins can have an impact on future costs by allowing current fluid handling systems to handle new process chemistries and reduce development time.

The performance of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins when exposed to chemicals is typical of fully fluorinated polymers. Table 4 shows the performance in tensile testing and the weight change of fabricated pieces of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins after immersion in inorganic chemical media. There is usually no measurable effect of common inorganic reagents on the tensile properties of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins; however, if there is, a measurable weight gain or loss is observed.
The test procedure involves exposure of compression-molded microtensile specimens (by ASTM D-3307) in a specific chemical medium at a selected temperature for one week (168 hr).
The exposed samples are placed in sealed bottles immediately after removal from chemical exposure.
Weight measurements are made within 2 hr after removal from exposure medium; tensile strength and elongation measurements are made within 8 hr after exposure.
As in the case of other fully fluorinated products, Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins are attacked by certain halogenated complexes containing fluorine. These include chlorine trifluoride, bromine trifluoride, iodine pentafluoride, and fluorine itself. Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins are also attacked by such metals as sodium and potassium, especially in their molten states. Great care should be taken when mixing finely divided fluoropolymers with finely divided metals, such as aluminum, magnesium, or barium, because these can react violently if ignited or heated to a high temperature. Certain metal hydrides, such as boranes (B2H6), aluminum chloride (AlCl3), and certain amines, have also been observed to attack fluorocarbon resins at elevated temperatures.
Physical damage resulting from absorption of various chemicals into the walls of fabricated articles (particularly when combined with cycling temperatures), rapid changes in pressure, and mechanical abuse provide the most frequent cause of failure in articles fabricated from Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins.

OPTICAL PROPERTIES
Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins have outstanding optical properties with extremely low haze as measured by ASTM methods. This is a key advantage for visual inspection of process fluids in tubing. Specific values of percent transmission for given wavelengths are shown in Table 5. The refractive index of film made from Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins is measured at 550 nm wavelength (white light) and room temperature.

Glass Transition TemperatureThe glass transitions of fluoropolymer resins are generally described as relaxations that occur in amorphous regions of these partially crystalline polymers. These glass transitions are also called second order transitions and are dependent on the frequency at which energy is added to the system. The glass transition temperatures assigned to the resin are shown in Table 7.

Thermal Conductivity
Thermal conductivity of Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoro-polymer resins has been determined to be 0.19 W/(m·K).
Flammability
When exposed to flame, Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins burn but do not continue to burn when the flame is removed. These fluoropolymers are classified 94 V-O according to UL in their burning test classification. Teflon™ PFA HP Plus fluoropolymer resins have been exempted from Factory Mutual FM4910 flammability test because of its low level of flammability.
