Fluoroplastic FEP Coating Powder

Techyours™ FEP coatings are fluoropolymers that generally speaking have excellent non-stick properties for food products. FEP stands for FluorinatedEthylenePropylene and it is of the same family of coatings as PTFE. FEP is a copolymer of hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene.

As it is melt processable, some formulations of FEP can be oven heat soaked to achieve a very smooth, almost glass like finish. Used throughout industry, FEP coatings are used to give non-stick properties for dried fruit through to superglue. FEP tends to be softer than PTFE, though with some systems having multiple coats, it is possible to achieve a relatively long life.
