However, FEP decomposes when heated above 400F, thereby emitting toxic products, which restrains the market growth. In addition, high cost of polyimide films and issues in processing of these films are expected to decline the market growth.

Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) is a copolymer of hexafluoropropylene and tetrafluoroethylene. It differs from the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resins in that it is melt-processable using conventional injection molding and screw extrusion techniques. In addition, these coatings provide significant chemical resistance and abrasion resistance.

They are extremely non-wetting and possess low coefficient of friction, which make them suitable for use in manufacturing composite parts in aerospace industry, flexible printed circuits, heaters, loud speaker components, and photovoltaic modules. These coatings possess significant release properties, and are often used as a mold release coating. FEP-coated polyimide films provide enhanced electrical, thermal, physical, and chemical properties over a wide temperature range in a lightweight package, which make them suitable for electrical insulation applications. In addition, as per the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards, polyimide films are coated to a thickness level of 1-2 mils.
