Tetrafluoroethylene based resin molding material excellent in high frequency electric characteristics

摘要

The present invention provides a TFE resin molding material which has electric characteristics, particularly low dielectric dissipation factor, in a microwave area, can also lower extrusion pressure as the material is of low molecular weight and can provide a molded article excellent in surface smoothness. The material is especially useful as a coating material for a coaxial cable for equipment in which microwave is used, including satellite transmitting equipment and a cell phone base station. A tetrafluoroethylene resin molding material excellent in high frequency electric characteristics, which provides a molded article having a dielectric constant of at most 2.2 and a dielectric dissipation factor of at most 1.60x10<-4 >under 12 GHz, and a standard specific gravity of at least 2.192 and less than 2.3 is provided. As the tetrafluoroethylene resin, a tetrafluoroethylene homopolymer or a copolymer of 99.9 to 99.9999% by mole of tetrafluoroethylene and 0.0001 to 0.1% by mole of a specific fluoromonomer is used.
