Polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)has the advantages of high and low temperature resistance

chemical corrosion resistance and high thermal stability

and has become an indispensable sealing material in the industrial field.Its compression performance is crucial to the safe service of the sealing structure.By carrying out the compression experiments and compression creep experiments on PTFE

the compression properties of PTFE at different temperatures were studied

and the coupling effect of stress and temperature on creep behavior was explored.The results show that the compressive yield strength and compressive modulus of PTFE decrease with the increase of temperature.The compression creep performance is influenced by the coupling of temperature and stress.At the same temperature

the instantaneous strain and creep rate of PTFE increase with the increase of stress.Under the same stress

as the temperature increases

the compressive modulus decreases

the molecular energy and free volume increase

resulting in an increase in the instantaneous strain and creep of PTFE

and an increase in the total strain.Finally

the Burgers model

Findley model

and Time-Hardening model were used to analyze the creep behavior of PTFE under different loading conditions.It was found that the Burgers model and Findley model can better describe the creep behavior of PTFE at different temperatures.This study can provide theoretical guidance and data support for the design and engineering application of sealing structures that consider the compressive creep performance of PTFE.
