FEP Type RF, release film, is a clear or pigmented film manufactured from fluorinated ethylene propylene resin. FEP-RF is specifically desired for release applications. The non-stick surface, chemical resistance, and 205°C (400°F) usage temperature make Saint-Gobain's FEP an ideal release film for composite molding over a wide range of resin systems. High elongation and a smooth, low-gel film surface allow FEP to conform to complex mold contours and produce a smooth part finish. Perforated film is available to control out gassing and resin bleed. Pigmented film aids in identification on the shop floor and increases visibility of the film to prevent foreign object contamination (FOD) when removing the film from the parts and the mold.
