Enhancing Performance with High-Performance Additives
Global Supply of Kitamura’s High-Quality PTFE Micropowders Arcplas specializes in the export and supply of premium PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Micropowders, primarily manufactured by Kitamura Limited, a world-renowned leader in the field.
PTFE micropowder is a low-molecular-weight fluoropolymer used as a high-performance additive in various industries. By incorporating it into plastics, rubbers, inks, and lubricants, you can significantly enhance sliding properties and wear resistance.
Key Features
Superior Lubricity: Drastically reduces the coefficient of friction.
Exceptional Heat Resistance: Maintains stability even in high-temperature environments.
Chemical Inertness: Highly resistant to chemicals, solvents, and environmental degradation.
Excellent Dispersion: Available in various particle sizes to ensure optimal mixing and performance in your specific matrix.
Non-Stick Properties: Provides excellent release characteristics.
PTFE Micropowder: Product Lineup
We offer two primary series of Kitamura’s high-performance PTFE micropowders, each optimized for specific industrial requirements.
1. KT Series (KT-300M / KT-400M / KT-600M)
The ultimate choice for high-temperature stability and super engineering plastics.
The KT Series consists of fully sintered, ultra-high molecular weight PTFE micropowders, boasting the world’s highest level of heat resistance.
Ideal for Super Engineering Plastics: Perfectly suited as an additive for high-performance polymers such as PEEK.
Zero Outgassing at 420°C: Even at extreme temperatures of 420°C, no decomposition gases are generated. This makes it the ideal choice for POM (Polyoxymethylene) and other resins sensitive to decomposition gases.
Shape Retention at High Temperatures: Unlike standard PTFE, these grades do not exhibit melt-flow even above the melting point. They maintain their particle shape, ensuring uniform dispersion and consistent performance even in high-heat processing.
KTL Series (KTL-450A / KTL-620 / KTL-630)
High-performance additives for superior processability and dimensional stability.
The KTL Series features fully sintered, high molecular weight PTFE micropowders designed for ease of use in manufacturing.
Excellent Flowability & Dispersion: Optimized for seamless integration into production lines. Their superior fluidity allows for automatic feeding into compounding and kneading machinery, increasing operational efficiency.
Dimensional & Strength Stability: These grades exhibit minimal changes in volume or shape around the melting point. As a result, they do not adversely affect the physical strength or dimensional accuracy of the final molded products.
Main Applications
Our PTFE micropowders are utilized across a wide range of industrial sectors:
Engineering Plastics & Elastomers: Improves wear resistance and PV values in gears, bearings, and seals.
Inks & Coatings: Enhances scratch resistance and surface slip in printing inks and industrial paints.
Lubricants & Greases: Acts as a solid lubricant to improve performance under extreme pressure.
Electronics: Utilized for its excellent dielectric properties.
