| abstract |
The invention relates to preparations consisting of an, optionally modified, suspension polytetrafluoroethylene and minor quantities of a thermoplastic filler such as polyetheretherketone or polyphenylene sulphide which are suitable for processing by injection moulding. The resultant moulded structures demonstrate a high level of strength, hardness, elasticity, chemical resistance and good anti-friction properties. They are therefore suitable in the construction of chemical apparatus, for plain bearings, seals and electrical components. |
