How come there's a Teflon Products and Kynar extended delivery

Within the last year, the business has had more difficulties than I have come across inside my 30 years experience. In the past I have seen sharp price increases, and I have witnessed several shortages, and delivery issues due to plastic resin allocations through resin companies. This is definitely the very first instance I have seen all these issues at one time.

PTFE Sheet (TFE) and Kynar both are on allocation.

Both of these resins are in short supply. The  PTFE Sheet product PTFE (TFE) and also PVDF  manufacturing requires a mineral called Fluorspar that's mined in Mongolia and China. The worldwide need for this mineral has increased significantly, additionally, the supply has tightened. PTFE materials have high temperature resistance, excellent chemical resistance and incredibly low co-efficient of friction (slippery) and is utilized in a good deal of purposes from non-stick fry pans to ptfe tape for use at home. This mineral is a key raw material in the manufacturing of fluoropolymers, fluorolubricants and lots of refrigerants.This increase in demand coupled with general shortage of raw materials is mainly responsible for a dramatic price increase (almost double within the last year), shortages, and we expect these two factors to stay in affect in the near future.
