Utilizing varioussurface modification technologies,products are available in bondable(cementable) form that allows endusers to laminate/bond films with amultitude of substrates to combine thehigh performance of fluoropolymers withvirtually any material of their choice.• Extruded FEP, PFA, ETFE, ECTFEand PVDF filmsEmerging TechnologiesSaint-Gobain is the global pioneer inthe development of multi-layer filmtechnologies. Beginning with Chemfilm ® ,the world’s first multi-layer fluoropolymerproduct, our technologists have nowachieved this accomplishment inmelt-processable fluoropolymers. Ourproprietary technology allows us tocombine new groups of materials toachieve greater levels of performance.Our goal is simple—deliver theperformance you need, where you needit, at a great value.FluoroLease® Multi-Layer Release FilmFluoroLease® is the new multilayerrelease film that matches theperformance and release characteristicsof FEP, while outperforming conventionalFEP in drapability and conformability,and providing 50% higher area yield(1-mil film). It is recommended forautoclave cures with all resin systemsand cure cycles up to 375°F and hasbeen demonstrated effective in curetemperatures to 232°C (450°F) and postcures to 260°C (500°F).FluoroLam® Protective Film is a newproduct technology that meets the needsof protective/decorative applications.This product technology can offeroutstanding chemical resistance, PSA-freeadhesion, and long life weatherabilityfor outdoor exposure, depending uponthe needs of the application. The uniquematerials and processes employed inthe manufacture of this product deliverstate-of-the-art elongation for excellentthermoformability in emerging marketapplications.Ask your SGPPL sales representativehow our material expertise can help youunlock profits from your operation.
