Heat Sealing Thin Fluoropolymer Films (such as Teflon™)
We have been heat sealing thin fluoropolymer films, like Teflon™, since 1985. If it is a thin high performance polymer and it can be heat sealed, we’ll heat seal it! We can produce a wide array of lay-flat and three-dimensional configurations utilizing our existing technologies.
Advantages of Heat Sealed Products made from fluoropolymers such as Teflon™:
- Chemical Inertness
- Chemical Resistance
- High Temperature Resistance
- Cryogenic Temperature Resistance
- Low Permeability
- High Weatherbility
- Excellent Optical Clarity
- Releaseability
- High Dielectric Strength
- Low Flammability
-
- Custom thermal impulse heat sealing of high performance Teflon™ films
-
- Heat sealed Teflon™ film bag
-
- Custom Heat Sealed bag reinforced with Kapton® tape, designed for NASA.
Examples of Heat Sealed Fluoropolymer (Teflon™) Products:
- Bags for inert sampling
- Cryogenically resistant bags
- Large panels or continuous belts
- Highly temperature resistant bags
- Cell culture bags
- Reservoir bags to hold caustic fluids
- Liners for a variety of containers like pails, drums or tanks
- Fluid transfer bags with Fluoropolymer fittings heat-sealed into them
- Three dimensional Simulation Chambers used for aerosol experiments
Processes
Our heat sealing manufacturing processes allow for a wide array of applications, and if required can be tailored to a specific need. All heat sealing processes are highly traceable, and Certificates of Compliance are available upon request.
