A range of fillers, typically glass fibre, carbon, graphite, bronze can be blended with PTFE resins, usually in the proportion of 2 - 40%, to improve certain characteristics. The incorporation of fillers can: • Increase compressive strength • Improve thermal conductivity • Improve abrasion resistance • Reduce thermal expansion • Reduce coefficient of friction • Impart electrical conductivity It should be noted that the use of fillers may downgrade other properties of PTFE such as chemical and electrical resistance.

Thrasher, Ph.D., Committee Chair Marek W. Urban, Ph.D. Gary C. Lickfield, Ph.D. Stephen H. Foulger, Ph.D. ABSTRACT The main focus of this work is the synthesis of hydrofluorocarbon ethers (HFEs). New synthetic methods and new HFEs were successfully developed. In Chapter 1, new HFEs were synthesized with tetrafluoroethylene (CF2=CF2, TFE) as new engineered fluids. The fluorinated olefins’ addition to alcohols is a more conventional approach to HFEs, and in our group a synthetic method consists of three steps was attempted: a. radical addition of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) to 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane compound; b. hydrolysis of the fluorinated dioxolane compound to make a diol; c.
