Choosing it as an alternate material for replacing glass or plastic is an economical choice that can cut down the expenses and production cost by half. VM will use commercially reasonable efforts to make shipments on date agreed by VM. All products shall be deemed to be delivered and risk of loss shall pass to Buyer at such time as the product is loaded onto a transportation carrier vehicle.
ETFE tubing is commonly used in wiring harnesses, in exterior film applications where weathering resistance is desirable, and as a liner in tanks where specific chemical and wear resistance is required. Its high tensile strength at 25 C also leads to a higher working pressure at that temperature. ETFE’s mechanical and chemical properties were so strong that it was chosen as a material for the Olympics! The Beijing National Aquatic Centre, built for the 2008 Summer Olympics, is the largest building made of ETFE laminate film. We are always eager to provide recent and factually correct descriptions for our products, taking relevant literature as well as material producer statements into consideration. ETFE stands for ethylene tetrafluoroethylene and offers the highest mechanical and tensile strength of the fluoropolymer tubing family at VICI Metronics.
These were submitted by Chinese architects, Shanghai Xian Dai Architectural Design, Rafael Vinoly Architects from the US and the subsequent collaborative Chinese-Australian winning design. Conceptually the square box and the interior spaces are carved out of an undefined cluster of foam bubbles, symbolising a condition of nature that is transformed into a condition of culture. The overall appearance of the aquatic centre is a cube of water molecules. In July 2003, Australian-based architects PTW and engineering firm Ove Arup won the contract to design and build the 2008 Olympic National Swimming Centre in Beijing. Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide has entered an agreement with Hoteli Dubrovacka Rivijera to open a new Sheraton khách sạn in Dubrovnik, Croatia, which is the group’s fourth hotel in the country. French khách sạn operator Accor and China-based Huazhu Hotels Group have formed a long-term alliance to create a diversified hotel company in Trung Quốc with more than 2,000 properties.
By Application segment also provides consumption during the forecast period of 2016 to 2027. Understanding the segments helps in identifying the importance of different factors that aid the market growth. ETFEs are only used for relatively high-performance applications related to heat, low temperature, chemical internes, and electrical insulation. Because ETFE is a semi-transparent material, it can also be used as a viable replacement for glass or traditional plastic. ETFE is an attractive replacement for glass because it maintains 1% the weight of glass, yet transmits 25% more light and is less expensive to install. Thanks to the options we have with sterilizing ETFE elements and its biocompatibility, there are numerous applications for the material in medical practice.
Convoluted Tubing – This tubing contains multiple convolutes in series resulting in a highly flexible and maneuverable tubing material. Also called flexible conduit, convoluted tubing is used as protective covering for wires and fiber optics in critical areas of aerospace, automotive, and general industrial applications. Wire Harness – With a dielectric strength extending up to 1800 volts/mil, ETFE is an effective option for wire harness insulation in addition to its abrasion protection.
We can etch tubing over the length of the tube or for specific lengths on the end. ETFE extruded tubing can also be etched on the inside diameter, outside diameter, or on the tip of the tubing. However, packaging can be witty or aesthetically pleasing, which attracts buyers who want to view the exterior of an item before deciding on whether or not to purchase it.
The panels used in construction are self-extinguishing and could be designed to drop out of their mounting points to let toxic fumes, smoke and heat out of the building faster. MFA has similar chemical, electrical and temperature properties than PFA, but offers higher clarity, low haze values and high light and UV transmittance. Normally ETFE tubing is produced to order, but we do stock a limited range of standard sizes, from 0.3mm to 2.5mm ID . Normally PVDF tubing is produced to order, but we do stock a limited range of standard sizes, from 4mm to 10mm ID.
