ETFE-E4 and LM fluoropolymer films are manufactured from specialty grades of of ethylene and tetrafluoroethylene copolymers. These grades are designed to be highly extensible and formable at all manufacturing temperatures when compared to ETFE-E2 film.
ETFE-E4
ETFE-E4 film covers the same operating temperature, -200°C (-328°F) to 165°C (330°F), as ETFE-E2 film. Its elongation characteristics are superior throughout this temperature range, which makes it an ideal candidate for thermoforming to more complex shapes without sacrificing other mechanical and thermal performance characteristics.
ETFE-LM ETFE-LM film is formulated from a low melting specialty ETFE resin. This allows ETFE-LM to achieve the highest elongation characteristics and lowest force requirements when thermoformed up to 125°C (257°F). ETFE-LM is the perfect choice for deep draws up to and greater than 10:1 ratios, such as complex medical container laminates and liners.
