Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composite materials, commonly used in high-performance applications such as RF/microwave circuits and industrial products, have unique safety considerations due to their chemical composition and processing characteristics. Below are guidelines for the safe handling, processing, and disposal of PTFE composite materials.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composite materials, including those used in high-frequency laminates like RT-duroid® and RO series products, are widely valued for their excellent dielectric, thermal, and chemical properties. However, handling these materials requires adherence to specific safety precautions to ensure user safety and prevent material damage.
