In terms of atomic structure, the outer layers of hydrogen and fluorine require an electron pair to be stable. In 1958, Bill Gore and his wife Vieve Gore established Gore in the basement of their home in Newark, Delaware, USA. So the scientific name is also called polytetrafluoroethylene. What is the difference between it and vinyl plastic in daily life? This is a knowledge of chemistry. He registered this material as GORE-TEX.What exactly is 'bulging'? Gore-tex, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and expanded, which one of these many names is this material? PTFE adhesive tape Manufacturers Speaking from the history of its invention, PTFE is a very versatile and flexible fluoropolymer. In 1969, Bob Gore, the son of the Gore couple, discovered that PTFE can be stretched into a high-strength porous material under proper stretching. When they are combined with C, they all exist in the form of covalent bonds. Because the mechanism of polymer formation is the same, it is called 'ethylene', which is distinguished from 'alkane' and 'hydrocarbon'. This company later became one of the world's top 500 companies. Poly- is the meaning of 'polymerization'; tetra- is the affix of 'four' in English; fluoro- is a chemical element ; fluorine'; ethylene- is a kind of high Molecular material: ethylene. Take its four capital letters as abbreviation: PTFE. Because it is stretched and compressed, the English name “expended” has now been added to the front, so many academic journals call it ePTFE (expendedPolytetrafluoroethylene). Polytetrafluoroethylene This is the English name for bulging. The company started from producing professional insulated wires, using PTFE as insulation material. This bond is very stable, which is also the molecular basis for its resistance to degradation and denaturation. He studied polytetrafluoroethylene very deeply. So Gore-tex, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and expanded body are actually different names for the same material. Gore-tex is also called 'Gore-tex' in Chinese, which is stretched from PTFE, which is the registered trademark of this material. When the hydrogen in polyethylene (-CH2-CH2-)n is replaced with fluorine, it becomes (-CF2-CF2-)n, see, there are four 'fluorine' in each monomer, So it is poly'four' fluoroethylene. Bill Gore used to work in the chemical industry, and his main research was insulation materials
