Examples of fluoropolymers include:
- PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene): Known widely as Teflon®, used in non-stick cookware and industrial applications.
- FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene): Used in wire insulation and chemical processing equipment.
- PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy Alkane): Known for its high temperature and chemical resistance, used in semiconductor manufacturing.
- ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene): Used in architectural applications for its durability and resistance to weathering.
- PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride): Used in the chemical industry for its resistance to solvents and acids.
