  • K 2004: Oktoberfest of polymers
    , global technology director of the Engineering Polymers unit. The company will highlight a number of recent developments at K 2004, including: DuPont has developed an array of paintable and chrome-plateable products including Delrin polyacetal, a previously difficultto-decorate resin because it has
  • Teflon Coating Reduces Lead Screw Friction
    PTFE was discovered serendipitously by Roy Plunkett of DuPont in 1938, while attempting to make a new CFC refrigerant, when the perfluorethylene polymerized in its storage container. DuPont patented it in 1941 and registered the Teflon trademark in 1944. This name has since become a genericized
  • Out of the Frying Pan and Onto the Cable - Teflon(R) and other Fluoropolymers (.pdf)
    Teflon, a product developed by DuPont and a common coating on cookware, is one of a group of compounds known as fluoropolymers. Fluoropolymers are fluorocarbon-based polymers with multiple strong carbon-fluorine bonds. Teflon FEP-a different grade than the product used on cookware-and other
  • Focus on: PEEK (.pdf)
    of the great commodity polymers was "invented". Similarly, PTFE was discovered by mistake in 1938 when Roy Plunkett at DuPont noticed that a. supposedly full cylinder of tetrafluoroethylene appeared to have nothing in it. When the cylinder. was cut open, a white residue (polytetrafluoroethylene
  • Polyacetal
    polyoxymethylenes and polyacetal are used interchangeably. DuPont's Delrin is a polyacetal engineering resin that is also used to mold plastic parts. Other polyacetal engineering plastics are also available.
