FEP Coatings

Performance Polymers and Coatings offers expert applications of  FEP  coatings to a broad range of medical, scientific and industrial parts to its clients, spread over diverse industries, since the past two decades.

FEP,  an abbreviation for (Fluorinated ethylene propylene), is a fluorocarbon-based polymer coating. It is an excellent option for applications that require non-stick, chemical resistance and high release properties.  This coating is non-porous because it melts and flows during the baking process which allows for superb chemical resistance. FEP non-stick coatings melt and flow during baking to provide smooth non-porous films with excellent abrasion. FEP coatings are extremely non-wetting and have a very low coefficient of friction. This coating has excellent release properties and is often used as a mould-release coating. FEP coating is typically applied to a thickness of 1-2 mils

This coating is an excellent option for applications that require the advantages of PTFE coatings, but need a material to be easy to form into different shapes. Although the PTFE coating is also non-stick, FEP film has a softer, more flexible coating. FEP coatings have a high release which melts at 260° C (450° F) and is resistant to sunlight.

Key Properties of FEP Coatings:

  • High Degree Of Stress Crack Resistance
  • Low Coefficient Of Friction
  • Exceptional Dielectric Properties
  • Heat Resistance
  • Retention Properties
  • High Transparency Rate With Good Transmittance Of Ultra Violets And Visible Wavelengths
  • Long Term Weather Resistant
  • Excellent Resistance To Ozone, Sunlight And Weather
  • Lowest Refractive Index Of All Thermoplastics With Low Light Reflection

FEP Coating Applications :

FEP Coatings are used in many industries including:

  • Food & beverage appliances including industrial bakeware and other food grade applications. FEP coatings are acceptable for direct contact with food including cookies, bread and other pastries that bake at 300° F.
  • Moulding Industry for moulds and moulding components. FEP coatings eliminates the need for oil as a release agent during the moulding process.
  • Electrical Components for computers and aerospace industries. FEP’s dielectric properties make it an ideal coating for different electrical components.
  • Outdoor Applications due to the FEP coatings resistance to sun exposure and harsh weather.
  • Medical FEP coatings can provide low friction and biocompatibility which is very important in the medical industry. This coating is also FDA approved, non-porous, flexible and weldable.
  • Chemical Processing due to FEPs non-porous coatings, it has a higher chemical resistance

FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) non-stick  coatings melt and flow during baking to provide smooth non-porous films with excellent abrasion  resistance.
