  2. Polytetrafluoroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene

    Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene, and has numerous applications because it is chemically inert. [3] The commonly known brand name of PTFE-based composition is Teflon by Chemours, [4] a spin-off from DuPont, which originally invented the compound in 1938. [4]

  3. Thread seal tape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_seal_tape

    PTFE tape used for different sized fittings PTFE tape for natural gas. There are two US standards for determining the quality of any thread seal tape. MIL-T-27730A (an obsolete military specification still commonly used in industry in the US) requires a minimum thickness of 3.5 mils and a minimum PTFE purity of 99%. [3]

  4. Pipe dope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_dope

    Petroleum-based pipe dope is not intended for use on threaded PVC, CPVC or ABS pipe and fittings since it will deteriorate the plastic. Builders in the US are expected to use thread compounds that meet ASTM F2331 - Standard Test Method for Determining Chemical Compatibility of Thread Sealants with Thermoplastic Threaded Pipe and Fittings Materials or thread seal tape on PVC, CPVC and ABS threads.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rulon_(plastic)

    Rulon is the trade name for a family of PTFE plastics produced by Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics. Rulon plastics are known for their low coefficient of friction, excellent abrasion resistance, wide range of operating temperatures, and chemical inertness. Common applications for Rulon include seals, piston rings, bearings, and electrical ...

    A methamphetamine pipe is a glass pipe which consists of a tube connected to a spherical bulb with a small opening on top designed for smoking methamphetamine. A pipe that has been used will have carbon deposit on the exterior of the bulb and white or gray crystal residues on the inner surface. [ 1 ]

  8. Chalice (pipe) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chalice_(pipe)

    It is a type of water pipe with a hose or drawtube for inhaling; the water cools and filters the smoke. The hose provides additional airspace for cooling. A screen embedded in the crater protects against drawing in burning particles to clog the interior. The marijuana is finely cut and placed on top of a clay cone, called "kutchie". [1]

  9. Tetrafluoroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrafluoroethylene

    A convenient, safe method for generating TFE is the pyrolysis of the sodium salt of pentafluoropropionic acid: [6]. C 2 F 5 CO 2 Na → C 2 F 4 + CO 2 + NaF. The depolymerization reaction – vacuum pyrolysis of PTFE at 650–700 °C (1,200–1,290 °F) in a quartz vessel – is a traditional laboratory synthesis of TFE.
