•WhenusingPTFE-coatedmagneticbars,thefollowinghaseto
be noted: Chemical reactions of PTFE occur in contact with
molten or solute alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, as
well as with fine powders of metals in groups 2 and 3 of the
periodic system at temperatures above 300 °C - 400 °C. Only
elementary fluorine, chlorotrifluoride and alkali metals attack
it; halogenated hydrocarbons have a reversible swelling effect.
