SLURRY TECHNIQUE FOR PRODUCING FLUOROPOLYMER COMPOSITES

A fluoropolymer composite comprising at least one fluoropolymer and particulate filler material is formed using a slurry process, in which the particulate filler material is first dispersed in a polar organic liquid, which is then combined with a suitable particulate fluoropolymer. The combination i...

Zusammenfassung:A fluoropolymer composite comprising at least one fluoropolymer and particulate filler material is formed using a slurry process, in which the particulate filler material is first dispersed in a polar organic liquid, which is then combined with a suitable particulate fluoropolymer. The combination is dried to form a composite powder material. The composite powder material, with optional addition of another fluoropolymer, is processed to form a fluoropolymer composite body. The process can be carried out with either melt-processible or non-melt-processible fluoropolymers.
