CTFE, or chlorotrifluoroethylene is a chlorofluorocarbon with chemical formula CF2CClF. It is commonly used as a refrigerant in cryogenic applications. CTFE has a C=C double bond and so can be copolymerised to produce the plastic ECTFE. CTFE has also been polymerized into the homopolymer PCTFE meaning polychlorotrifluoroethylene. PCTFE has the trade name Neoflon® from Daikin Industries in Japan, and used to be produced under the trade name Kel-F® from 3M Corporation in Minnesota.
