What are PFA tubes used for and why are they widely used in the semiconductor industry?

2022-12-15


What is the raw material of PFA tube?

PFA pipes are plastic pipes made of a material called soluble polytetrafluoroethylene (PFA). This material is soluble polytetrafluoroethylene, which has similar but superior characteristics to polytetrafluoroethylene. In short, triflure PFA tubes are very resistant to chemical corrosion and will not be affected by most chemicals; It does not conduct electricity, can effectively insulate; Low friction, high thermal stability, even at high temperatures can maintain stable performance.

What is the use of PFA pipe?

  1. Chemical industry: PFA pipe because of its resistance to sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, sodium hydroxide and other highly corrosive liquids, and high temperature resistance, is often used to transport such media, is the ideal material for chemical pipelines.

  2. Semiconductor manufacturing: Semiconductor production requires extremely high purity and non-impurity fluid transmission, triflurai PFA tube due to low ion content, good chemical stability, so widely used in semiconductor process to transport high temperature corrosive liquids.

  3. Medical devices: In the field of medical devices, PFA tubes can safely and effectively transport high temperature steam, chemical disinfectants and drugs.

  4. Optical fiber communication: PFA tubes are used to protect optical fibers and ensure their normal operation, playing a key role in optical fiber communication systems.

  5. Environmental protection: Thanks to its good tolerance to chemicals, PFA pipes are used to transport waste liquid and waste gas in sewage treatment and waste gas treatment.


Why are PFA tubes widely used in the semiconductor industry?

PFA tube materials play an important role in the semiconductor industry due to their excellent chemical stability, high temperature resistance and electrical insulation properties. In the face of various corrosive substances in the semiconductor manufacturing process, PFA tubes exhibit excellent erosion resistance, ensuring safe and reliable operation in harsh chemical environments, making them ideal conduits for transporting corrosive media. In addition, the triflure PFA tube can maintain structural stability and integrity at high temperatures of up to 260 degrees Celsius, meeting the needs of thermal media transmission, cooling and heat treatment of semiconductor equipment under high temperature conditions. At the same time, its excellent electrical insulation performance effectively prevents current leakage and static accumulation, reduces the failure rate of equipment and the risk of electrical interference, so it is widely used in semiconductor equipment internal electronic wiring harnesses, connectors and insulating bushings and other components.
