IC® PTFE Composites
Application-specific PTFE compounds using IC. Supplied as rod, tube, or sheet. Formulated to your duty conditions — PV, temperature, media, counterface. For valve seats, seals, bearings, and wear components.
IC®-Treated Fillers
IC®-functionalised fillers (IC®-Mica, IC®-Graphite) designed to bond into inert polymer matrices — commercial in PTFE systems, demonstrated in PA. Better load transfer, dispersion, and wear/creep vs untreated fillers. For compounders and processors who want control, with interfaces that work. Drops into your existing compounding process.
IC®-PTFE Micropowder
IC-engineered PTFE micropowders for polymers, coatings, and lubricants. Improved dispersion and consistent slip/scratch/wear. Trialled on a real production line in FKM.
IC®-PTFE Micropowder
IC-engineered PTFE micropowders for polymers, coatings and lubricants. IC® surface treatment makes the micropowder disperse evenly and couple into the host system — improved dispersion and consistent slip, scratch and wear performance, batch after batch.
Proven in production: trialled on a real production line in FKM.
- Even dispersion in polymers, coatings and lubricants.
- Consistent slip / scratch / wear performance.
- VOC-free — no solvents, production scale.
IC®-Mica/PTFE Composite
The go-to grade when dimensional control, stiffness and wear resistance matter most. IC® strengthens the polymer–filler interphase so mica truly reinforces PTFE rather than just sitting in the matrix.
- Higher stiffness and reduced creep.
- Lower wear rate with PTFE’s broad chemical resistance.
- Low shrinkage for tight tolerances.
| Density | 2.11 g/cm³ |
| Hardness, Shore D | 67 |
| Shrinkage | 0.4% |
| Tensile modulus (ASTM D638) | 428 ksi ≈ 2.95 GPa |
| Wear rate (JIS K 7218) | 1.336 × 10⁻⁷ mm³/(N·m) |
IC®-Graphite/PTFE Composite
The low-friction grade. With IC®, the interface carries load and moves heat more effectively, supporting longer life in dry or marginally lubricated service.
- Low coefficient of friction; excellent dry/wet sliding behaviour.
- Effective heat dissipation via the graphite network.
- Broad chemical compatibility.
| Density | 2.07 g/cm³ |
| Hardness, Shore D | 63 |
| Shrinkage | 1.08% |
| Tensile modulus (ASTM D638) | 329 ksi ≈ 2.26 GPa |
| Wear rate (JIS K 7218) | 4.895 × 10⁻⁷ mm³/(N·m) |
