| Grade / designation | Polymer | Pigment | Resin source | Type S | Type P |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PTFE PTFE | Unfilled PTFE | Up to 1.5% by mass | Virgin, reprocessed or recycled, as designated | Dimensionally stabilized | As processed |
Material requirements from Clause 1 and Clause 4. An elemental chemical-composition table is not specified for PTFE.
| Grade / designation | Property class | Tensile strength (MPa) | Elongation at break (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| PTFE PTFE | 1 | ≥25 | ≥280 |
| PTFE PTFE | 2 | 20 to <25 | 200 to <280 |
| PTFE PTFE | 3 | 15 to <20 | 150 to <200 |
| PTFE PTFE | 4 | 10 to <15 | 75 to <150 |
| PTFE PTFE | 5 | <10 | <75 |
Table 9 property classes, tested using ISO 13000-2. Density: 2.13–2.19 g/cm³, or 2.14–2.23 g/cm³ for reprocessed resin and blends. Type S dimensional change ≤0.5%. Where geometry permits: ball indentation hardness >23 MPa or Shore D >54.
