- What is ETFE and Why Has it Become Architecture's Favorite Polymer?ETFE was originally developed in the 1970s by DuPont as a lightweight, heat resistant film to serve as a coating for the aerospace industry. Since that time, the film has been used sporadically...
- Comprehensive Guide on Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) - OmnexusEthylene Tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) is a melt processable, fluorine-based plastic designed to have high corrosion resistance and strength over a wide temperature range. The crystallinity of ETFE ranges from 40-60%. The mechanical properties of ETFE are superior to those of PTFE and FEP but it is less flexible than PTFE.
- Why ETFE Is the Miracle Construction Material - ThoughtCoETFE is often called a miracle construction material for tensile architecture. ETFE is (1) strong enough to bear 400 times its own weight; (2) thin and lightweight; (3) stretchable to three times its length without loss of elasticity; (4) repaired by welding patches of tape over tears; (5) nonstick with a surface that resists dirt and birds; (6 ...
- ETFE Foil: A Guide to Design - Architen LandrellETFE foil is a naturally translucent material and transmits light across the entire visible light region (380-780nm). A single layer of medium weight ETFE has a light transmission of approximately 90-95% light transmission, with only a small reduction when multiple layers are added.
