[Nhcoll-l] PTFE

[Haff, Tonya (NCMI, Crace)]

Hi all,

I wonder if you all could please give me your opinion on the use and archival nature of PTFE plastic? It is in the lids of some jars we are considering purchasing for use in our EtOH collection, and I see that it is used with chemicals and in scientific settings, but I have not yet heard of it used in a museum setting. Any advice or thoughts would be appreciated!

Cheers,

Tonya
