The composition of polytetrafluoroethylene
Polytetrafluoroethylene is a polymer compound formed by polymerization with TFE as a monomer. Its molecular structure is unique, and the main chain is formed by the interaction of carbon and fluorine atoms.
In its molecular structure, carbon atoms are connected to each other to form a stable chain-like skeleton, and fluorine atoms are closely surrounded by carbon atoms. Fluorine atoms have extremely strong electronegativity and form a very stable carbon-fluorine bond with carbon atoms. This carbon-fluorine bond has a high energy, giving polytetrafluoroethylene excellent chemical stability.
The fluorine atoms in polytetrafluoroethylene molecules are arranged in an extremely regular manner, forming a highly symmetrical structure. This regular structure not only enhances the interaction force between molecules, but also makes PTFE have excellent physical properties, such as low friction coefficient, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, etc.
Due to the special composition of PTFE, its performance is excellent, and it is widely used in many fields such as chemical industry, electronics, machinery, etc. It has become an indispensable and important material in modern industry.
