Today many different products need to be coated in some form and getting high electrical insulation seams to be the way forward. Different surfaces have different properties but working with up to 4000 volts you need to find the right solution.
Polyester with incorporated PTFE is perhaps the best option right now.
Contact us with your products and let us coat your products to meet your requirements when it comes to high electrical insulation.
This first picture is a FEP coat on a solid needle. It is clear that the FEP gives a more "even" surface when comparing with the PTFE coat.
Looking under a microscope often gives a good explanation of the quality of a coating. We went one step deeper looking at the I2 coating under an Atom microscope to look at the difference.
We where specify interested in the difference between PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) and FEP that often is used for electrical insulation.
Low friction is the buzz word in the business, but what creates the best possible low friction for medical coatings.
And what did we need to achieve 30% less friction compared with other coatings available for needles.
This picture is the PTFE coat on a solid needle. The coat does not "melt flow" together like the FEP (picture above)
