These natural properties make the use of fluoropolymers in industries such as wire and cable, architectural films, transportation, industrial and even medical an excellent choice for many applications.   Today, fluoropolymers serve a broad range of applications with their unique material properties, including chemical inertness, low friction, weatherability, natural flame retardance, temperature resistance, and barrier properties. For example, fluoropolymers are used as coatings for wire and cable found in buildings and aircraft thanks to their natural flame retardance.
