  2. Monofilament fishing line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monofilament_fishing_line

    DuPont made public in 1938 that their company had invented nylon. [1] This new invention was the first synthetic fiber, fabrics that are commonly used in textiles today. [2] In 1939, DuPont began marketing nylon monofilament fishing lines; however, braided Dacron lines remained the most used and popular fishing line for the next two decades, as early monofilament line was very stiff or "wiry ...

  3. Polyvinylidene fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinylidene_fluoride

    PVDF is used for specialty monofilament fishing lines, sold as fluorocarbon replacements for nylon monofilament. The surface is harder, so it is more resistant to abrasion and sharp fish teeth. Its refractive index is lower than nylon, which makes the line less discernible to fish eyes. It is also denser than nylon, making it sink faster ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_line

    Fishing line with hooks attached. A fishing line is any flexible, high-tensile cord used in angling to tether and pull in fish, in conjunction with at least one hook.Fishing lines are usually pulled by and stored in a reel, but can also be retrieved by hand, with a fixed attachment to the end of a rod, or via a motorized trolling outrigger.

  5. Fluoropolymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoropolymer

    A fluoropolymer is a fluorocarbon-based polymer with multiple carbon–fluorine bonds. It is characterized by a high resistance to solvents, acids, and bases. The best known fluoropolymer is polytetrafluoroethylene under the brand name "Teflon," trademarked by the DuPont Company.

  6. Polytetrafluoroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene

    Polytetrafluoroethylene is a fluorocarbon solid, as it is a high-molecular-weight polymer consisting wholly of carbon and fluorine. PTFE is hydrophobic : neither water nor water-containing substances wet PTFE, as fluorocarbons exhibit only small London dispersion forces due to the low electric polarizability of fluorine.

  7. Xylan (coating) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylan_(coating)

    Xylan is the umbrella trademark for most of the Whitford Corporation fluoropolymer coatings line. Xylan is made of low friction, wear resistant composites of fluoropolymers and reinforcing binder resins. Xylan coatings can be one-, two- (primer and top-coat), and three- (primer, mid-coat, top-coat) coat conventional and reinforced (filled ...
