PTFE Cracking and Fracture
Problembeschreibung
PTFE parts develop cracks or fractures, structural integrity is lost, and failure risk under load increases.
Ursachenanalyse
Rapid cooling after sintering generates internal stress; mechanical stress overload during machining or handling; too high content of fillers such as glass fiber, carbon fiber, and bronze makes the material brittle; dropping or bending causes cracks in the semi-crystalline structure.
Lösung
①Anneal after sintering to release internal stress; ②Handle carefully during post-processing and transportation; ③Optimize filler content and type to maintain toughness; ④Use appropriate tooling for machining to avoid excessive cutting force.
Wichtigste Erkenntnis
PTFE cracking requires cooling management, filler balance, and handling protection together; filler reinforcement and toughness trade off against each other; machining force control is a detail.; After confirming effectiveness, fix the parameters and practices into the work instruction to prevent recurrence
