[ARC5] [Milsurplus] [Boatanchors] Coils and the winding thereof

[J. Forster]

Apparently they have developed a Teflon that is soulable in a very special
solvent:

"Selective Solubility


Teflon® AF can be tailored to have narrow solubility in selected
perfluoroinated solvents but remains chemically resistant to all other
solvents and process chemicals. Initial experiments have shown limited
solubility of 3% to 15% for certain Teflon® AF polymers. "

Good for them.
