What doese ptfe plumbers tape stand for?
PTFE is the short form for a rather complicated name for the plastic that the tape is made from. The full name is Polytetrafluoroethene, or Poly-Tetra-Fluoro-Ethene (sometimes the 'ethene' part is called 'ethylene' - but this is the old name for the compound). Polytetrafluoroethene 's molecule is very similar to polythene except that all the hydrogen atoms in the molecule are replaced with fluorine. The chemical formula is .... -CF2-CF2-CF2-CF2-CF2-CF2--CF2-CF2-CF2-CF2-CF2-CF2-.... where the '2's are small and subscript. Polytetrafluoroethene, when coloured black with pigments, is also the constituent of non-stick surfaces on frying pans because it is very slippery and, once bonded onto the pan, willnot let things stick to it. 2 pieces of Polytetrafluoroethene rubbed on each other has the equivalent 'slipperiness' of ice on ice.
