Unfilled Film PTFE is a subcategory of Fluoroplastics. The additative is added during the manufacturing process. Its elastic modulus ranges from 300 to 380 MPa. Its tensile strength ranges from 6000 to 16000 MPa at break. Its elongation at break ranges from 100 to 250 %. Its specific gravity ranges from 1.38 to 1.4.

Fluoroplastics, also known as PTFE, is a thermoplastic polymer. The most common trade name is Teflon. poly(vinyl fluoride) It has low mechanical strength and is expensive. It has very low coefficient of friction. PTFE is commonly used in applications needing excellent dielectric strength and chemical and temperature resistance.
