What caused the TFE and Kynar extended delivery

Within the last year, the business has experienced more allocations than I have seen during my 3 decades experience. In the past I have seen sharp price increases, and I have seen several shortages, and delivery issues because of material allocations coming from resin companies. This is the first instance I have seen all these issues at the same time.

Polytetraflouroethylene (TFE) and Kynar are both on allocation.

Both of these resins are in short supply. The  PTFE - Polytetrafluoroethylene product PTFE (TFE) and Kynar-PVDF  manufacturing requires a mineral called Fluorspar that's mined in Mongolia and China. The worldwide requirement for this mineral has increased significantly, additionally, the supply has tightened. PTFE materials have high heat resistance, excellent chemical resistance and extremely low co-efficient of friction (slick) and is utilised in a bunch of purposes from non-stick fry cookware to ptfe tape for home use. This specific mineral is actually the crucial raw material in the manufacturing of fluoropolymers, fluorolubricants and a lot of refrigerants.This increasing amount of demand mixed with general shortage of raw materials is mainly responsible for a dramatic price increase (almost double over the last year), shortages, and we expect both these factors to stay in affect in the near future.
