Abstract

The equation of state of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) as a binder materials was investigated. The equations of state were quantified by conducting a series of shock impact experiments in which both pressure-particle velocity and shock velocity-particle velocity dependencies were measured. The compressive behavior of Teflon appears to be independent of the production route and additives introduced.
