FOR New Type Of Fluoropolymer Resin ECCtreme ECA 2000/3000/4000 Resin In stock

DESCRIPTION

ECCtreme™ ECA is a new type of perfluoroplastic, which is designed for high temperature applications up to 300°C, and at the same time has superior electrical and chemical resistance.ECCtreme™ ECA can be melted and processed at normal operating speeds through normal high-temperature fluoroplastic processing equipment, and at the same time it has the physical, electrical and chemical resistance of polytetrafluoroethylene.

What is the ECCtreme™ ECA family?

The ECCtreme™ ECA family is generally positioned as melt-processable, high-temperature fluoroplastic resins. The intent is to retain hallmark fluoropolymer benefits (chemical resistance, strong electrical performance, low friction, etc.) while extending the usable long-term temperature envelope for demanding applications.

The family also highlights that, under certain heat-treatment conditions, an ECC (epitaxial co-crystallization) structure may form. This can lead to performance shifts such as increased melting point, reduced melt flow (higher melt viscosity), and potentially improved resistance to stress cracking.

For engineering selection, a primary differentiator across ECA 2000 / 3000 / 4000 is commonly the melt-flow behavior (MFR) and the targeted part geometry: thin-wall/high-speed extrusion often benefits from higher MFR, while thick-wall extrusion and dimensional stability typically favor lower MFR.

Model-by-model guidance

1. ECCtreme ECA 2000

Typically considered for melt extrusion, compression molding, and resin transfer molding processes.

Lower MFR grades often favor thick-wall stability, deformation resistance, and sag control (subject to process and equipment).

Strong fit potential for thick-wall products (tubing/sheet/rod) and structural components.

2. ECCtreme ECA 3000

Also used for tubing/rod extrusion and can be applied in compression molding, injection molding, or transfer molding.

Relatively lower MFR supports melt strength, dimensional stability, and sag resistance for thicker-wall extrusion.

Broad applicability across thicker wire insulation, tubing/rod extrusion, and multiple molding processes.

3. ECCtreme ECA 4000

Commonly considered for thin wire insulation, film/sheet extrusion, and some injection-molded parts.

Relatively higher MFR supports filling, surface quality, and throughput for thin-wall, fine-gauge, or high-speed extrusion.

Retains hallmark fluoropolymer advantages: chemical resistance, electrical insulation, low friction, and more.

Quick selection guidance

1.Fine-gauge / thin insulation (approx. 0.05–0.254 mm): consider ECA 4000 first.

2.Thicker insulation (>0.254 mm) or thicker-wall extrusion: consider ECA 3000 first.

3.Sheets/rods/thick-wall tubing or structural parts: shortlist ECA 2000 and validate with the latest official documentation.
