The Difference between PTFE and Expanded PTFE

PTFE:

 PTFE or Teflon is a solid material.

 It can function well in an environment with up to 260 Degree Celsius temperature.

 It is a long-lasting material as it can put up with corrosion.

 It does not cause much friction.

 The industries fit for the usage of PTFE are oxidizing media, mineral oils, pharmaceutical, food, petrochemicals, glass line reactors and columns, solvents, lacquers, and corrosive chemicals.

 It does not contaminate anything that comes in close proximity to it as it is non-corrosive which is why food industries use it.

 It has no smell of its own.
