The resin inherently offers heat resistance, but for some demanding applications, it also needs the addition of flame retardants to increase its resistance to flammability.
Traditionally, these flame retardants have often contained polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which is part of per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS), a group of chemicals widely used to resist heat, oil, stain, and water.

Externally heated manifolds are best.
Internally heated systems, which use torpedo heaters, are not recommended because they have hot spots, stagnation zones and partially solidified material clinging to the walls.

The material was found to be very slippery, resistant to high heat, and chemically inert.
For example, the heat and chemical resistance of a fluoropolymer will greatly influence the pigment selection process.
