Key Features of SUKO ePTFE Membranes:

• Microporous Structure: Consists of billions of microscopic pores per square inch, providing excellent permeability for gases and vapors while acting as a barrier to liquids and fine particulates.
• Hydrophobic & Oleophobic: Naturally repels water and oils, preventing liquid penetration while allowing air and gas to pass through, making it ideal for venting and protection. (Oleophobic grades available for enhanced oil resistance).
• Waterproof & Breathable: Offers superior protection against liquid water ingress while allowing moisture vapor (like sweat or condensation) to escape, ensuring comfort and preventing pressure build-up.
• Chemically Inert: Highly resistant to a wide range of chemicals, acids, bases, and solvents, ensuring stability and longevity even in harsh chemical environments.
• Thermally Stable: Performs consistently across a broad temperature range, from cryogenic conditions up to high temperatures (typically -200°C to +260°C).
• Low Dielectric Constant: Excellent electrical insulation properties, suitable for applications in electronics and telecommunications.
• High Strength & Durability: Despite its porosity, ePTFE can be engineered for good tensile strength and tear resistance.
• Non-stick & Low Friction: Inherits PTFE's characteristic low coefficient of friction and non-stick surface.
• UV Resistant: Exhibits excellent resistance to UV degradation, making it suitable for outdoor applications.
• Customizable Properties: SUKO can tailor pore size, thickness, air permeability, and other characteristics to meet specific application requirements.

Benefits of Choosing SUKO ePTFE Membranes:

• Enhanced Product Reliability: Protects sensitive components from water, dust, contaminants, and corrosive chemicals.
• Improved Performance: Enables pressure equalization in sealed enclosures, enhances breathability in garments, and provides efficient filtration.
• Extended Product Lifespan: The durability and resistance of ePTFE contribute to longer service life for the end product.
• Versatile Solutions: Adaptable to a wide array of applications and industries.
• Quality Assurance: Manufactured under stringent quality control processes to ensure consistent performance.
