Tough working conditions and stringent testing norms makes fluoropolymers an ideal solution for many components used in defense industry. Superior insulation properties, resistance to acids & corrosive chemicals, extreme heat and cold withstanding, water-repellence, nonstick coatings are also used in military equipment as: Pneumatic cylinders, Aircraft fuel pump systems, cabling and communication systems. The Importance of lightweight materials, low friction and wear resistance, electrical Insulation, food and water Safety and Continued technological advancement drives the aerospace industry — particularly the defense sector.
With data transmission and connectivity becoming more and more important, military aircraft manufacturers need technology partners providing reliable and accurate solutions that suits tighter budgets. Fluoropolymer resins help insulate the millions of feet of cable that run throughout aircraft, tanks, space vehicles to add superior resistance to aging, radiation, and fire in addition to thermal stability. Also, lighter-weight materials are growing in priority as a means to save costs related to fuel burn and compliance to go-green norms.
