PTFE (Teflon) plates with precision perforations to fasten needle supports and vertical supports for flat collectors — the dielectric choice for aggressive solvents and field shielding. STABLE WORKSPACE WITH REPEATABLE GEOMETRIES Made of PTFE, these plates permit simple fastening of needle supports and vertical supports, keeping the needle–collector geometry identical between experiments. WHAT ADVANTAGES DO YOU GET FROM PTFE? The great chemical inertness of PTFE lets you use these plates with very aggressive solvents, and their dielectric nature creates efficient electric-field shields inside the chamber — concentrating the field where you want the fibers to deposit. All components are interchangeable and can be combined to build structures for cameras, pumps, lamps and custom collectors. SPECIFICATIONS Material: PTFE (Teflon), dielectric Thickness: 15 mm · Hole grid: 25 × 25 mm, M6 Sizes: from 100×150 mm to 300×600 mm FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS PTFE, aluminum or PVC: which should I choose? PTFE for the most aggressive solvents and full dielectric field-shielding. Aluminum when you need conductivity (ground planes, HV distribution) and rigidity. PVC as the cost-effective dielectric option. Why does a dielectric support shield the field? Being non-conductive, PTFE does not attract the charged jet, so it prevents fibers from being pulled toward the support instead of the collector — useful with small or dielectric collectors.
