PTFE

Construct a 3D molecular structure model of the non-stick coating polymer PTFE (Teflon) using Authentic Molymod Model Parts by Indigo

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) is a fluorine compound used to produce one of the most popular polymers, Teflon, the first material used commercially as non-stick coating. The image shown is for a single sub-unit & is loosely relatd to Freon, a refrigerant.

 

A molecular model of PTFE in the Molymod Hybrid Dome style uses the atoms & bonds in the parts list below. Our free 3D Molecular Model Builder shows other styles & allows for image rotation as an assembly guide.
