Mechanical and Electrical Properties
Properties of Teflon

Insulation
The combination of chemical
and physical properties of
Teflon

/Neoflon is a result
of its true fluorocarbon
structure. This unusual
structure leads to a material
which has an almost universal
chemical inertness; complete
insolubility in all known
solvents below 300C
(572F); excellent thermal
stability; and unsurpassed
electrical properties including
low dielectric loss, low
dielectric constant and
high dielectric strength.
Furthermore, Teflon/Neoflon
does not embrittle at very
low temperatures.
