Fluoropolymer films
Fluoropolymer films are state of the art materials providing to parts or production processes outstanding chemical resistance, transparency, weather resistance, heat resistance, electrical characteristics amongst others. They are the best solution for a growing number of industries such as electronic, machine, automotive and semiconductors.
DESCRIPTION
Benefits of fluoropolymer films
Daikin has developed a range of films and sheets based on the fluorine technology to meet the growing demand for high-performance films. They allow their users to benefit from the outstanding fluoropolymer's inherent properties.
Product lines of NEOFLON film

- dielectric properties
Applications
The range of NEOFLON films are suitable for use in a wide variety of applications such as anti-corrosive linings, composite part mold release, industrial roll covers, circuitry, pharmaceutical cap liners, sterile packaging, cable insulation, hot melt adhesive, microphone electret membranes, anti-graffiti coverings, erasable surface, coverings, automotive airbag systems, fuel hose permeation barrier, hot melt adhesive and more.
NEOFLON films adapt to conventional processes and secondary operations such as heat seal, thermoforming, welding, and heat- bonding, lamination, die-stamp. Each of the film grades is available in various, size, weight and thicknesses to meet the most specific requirements.
- Semiconductors manufacturing equipment require chemical-resistant liners for etching bath, restraining process downtime
- Construction and infrastructure segment players are continuously seeking for sustainable solutions such as water-repellent architectural fabrics, anti-graffiti coverings, protection against extreme corrosion, fading or cracking
