add to a chemical compound. Fluoropolymers may be mechanically characterized as thermosets or thermoplastics. Fluoropolymers can be homopolymers or copolymers

used to machine explosive lenses necessary for modern nuclear weapons. Fluoropolymers are advantageous as binders due to their high density (yielding high

hydrocarbons. PVDF has low density 1.78 g/cm3 in comparison to other fluoropolymers, like polytetrafluoroethylene. It is available in the form of piping

formulated as a composite system that typically combines one or more fluoropolymers—such as PTFE, perfluoroalkoxy alkane (PFA), and fluorinated ethylene

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene, and has numerous applications because it is chemically inert. The

Polymer fume fever or fluoropolymer fever, also informally called Teflon flu, is an inhalation fever caused by the fumes released when polytetrafluoroethylene

ethylene propylene (FEP) is the second most produced fluoropolymer. Films from two fluoropolymers serve as glass-replacements in solar cells. Fluorinated
