Teflon tape features a smooth surface, excellent electrical insulation, high-temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and strong adhesion, making it widely used in industries such as thermoplastics, packaging, and electronics and electrical engineering. However, during actual use, these conditions frequently arise.

　　Teflon tape becomes unusable after several months of purchase and storage. This issue persists in both storage and maintenance practices.

　　Stored Teflon tape should be packaged in rolls and then sealed with plastic film to protect it from sunlight and rain. This also prevents contact with corrosive chemicals, keeps the storage area dry, and safeguards against fire. During storage, tapes of the same thickness and type should be grouped together; tapes of different thicknesses or types must be stored separately and clearly labeled with their date of storage. If any tape remains, it should not only be wrapped in plastic film but also tagged with both its date of use and its date of storage. When selecting tape for use, always refer to its storage date. While in storage, the packaging should be periodically opened to inspect the tape’s color and adhesion, and any issues identified should be promptly addressed.

　　Applications of Teflon Tape in the Plastics Industry:

　　Teflon tape is a high-temperature-resistant adhesive tape made from glass fiber coated with a polytetrafluoroethylene emulsion; after drying, it forms a polytetrafluoroethylene-coated glass-fiber fabric, which is then bonded with silicone.

　　1. Easy demolding, reducing labor intensity;

　　2. Ensure complete demolding, significantly reducing the scrap rate;

　　3. The product surface exhibits uniform gloss, significantly elevating its grade;

　　4. Teflon coating exhibits excellent adhesion, is resistant to peeling, and is durable;

　　5. No release agent is used, reducing costs and environmental pollution while preventing rubber from vulcanizing and sticking.

　　6. Adhesion of rubber particles to the mold eliminates the need for shutdowns for cleaning, significantly boosting production efficiency while reducing mold wear and energy consumption.
