PTFE pneumatic conveying

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) is a polymer material with unique physicochemical properties, and its basic properties include excellent chemical stability, which can remain non-decomposing in a variety of solvents and acid-alkali environments. Good heat resistance, can be used in a wide temperature range from -190°C to 260°C; Low coefficient of friction, which makes the surface of PTFE material very smooth; and excellent electrical insulation. In addition, PTFE has high pressure resistance, abrasion resistance, and adhesion resistance. Common PTFE conveying methods mainly include: pneumatic conveying, belt conveying, spiral conveying and drum conveying. When choosing a PTFE conveying method, factors such as material characteristics, conveying needs, and whether there are special conveying requirements should be taken into account. Pneumatic conveying is suitable for fine powder or granular materials, belt conveying is suitable for medium weight and medium length materials, spiral conveying is suitable for conveying viscous or poorly flowable materials, and drum conveying is suitable for conveying lightweight and non-stick materials.

1. Common conveying methods

PTFE are mainly divided into mechanical conveying and pneumatic conveying. Mechanical conveying relies on the movement of mechanical components to achieve material transmission, which is a traditional conveying method and is suitable for short distances, low heights, small flow and other scenarios. Among them, screw conveyors, bucket elevators, belt conveyors and scraper conveyors have their own principles and characteristics. Pneumatic conveying uses airflow energy to transport materials in closed pipelines, which is the core technology of material processing, warehousing and packaging, and has a wide range of material adaptability.

2. Can PTFE be conveyed by pneumatic force?

PTFE is ideal for pneumatic conveying due to its fine particles, low density, good flowability, and no obvious bonding. Pneumatic conveying uses compressed air or vacuum as a power source to form an airflow in a closed pipe to carry the material and achieve gas-solid separation through a separator. According to the conveying pressure and power form, pneumatic conveying can be divided into negative pressure suction type, positive pressure pressure pressure conveying type and mixed type. Normally, the gas-solid mixing concentration is mostly dilute phase transport.
