AGC’s CYTOP has achieved extremely high transparency, of which the visible light transmission ratio is more than 95% or more, with an amorphous structure completely different from existing fluoropolymers. Since CYTOP can be dissolved with a special fluorinated solvent, it can be used in thin film coatings to a thickness of a few sub-microns. Furthermore, as it has the characteristics of fluoropolymers, CYTOP is attracting attention as an innovative material.
