PTFE

PTFE is used for insulating cables and myriad wires in an aircraft. It is a fluorocarbon polymer and is an electrical insulator. It has high tear resistance, low flammability and can retain its properties in aerospace conditions.


ABS

Airplane panels and luggage compartments are often made of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, or ABS plastic. This plastic is highly suitable for vacuum forming, so it can be manipulated into a wide variety of shapes. Its heavy-duty strength and lightweight density makes it the perfect application for airplane interior parts.
