PTFE (also known as Teflon) is a transparent, chemically inert and non-toxic material that features unmatched chemical resistance. The smoothness of this tubing reduces clogging, build up and optimizes the flow. Due to its high flexibility, PTFE is mostly used with microfluidic fittings in low-pressure applications. Its melting point is reached at 327°C, making it a material of choice in high-temperature applications.
