Teflon (TFE) and PVDF both are on allocation.

PTFE - Polytetrafluoroethylene  products, PTFE (TFE) and also PVDF  manufacturing requires a mineral called Fluorspar that's mined in Mongolia and China. The world requirement for this mineral has risen significantly, along with the supply has tightened. PTFE materials have high heat resistance, excellent chemical resistance and really low co-efficient of friction (slippery) and is used within tons of applications from non-stick fry griddles to ptfe tape for home use. This specific mineral is actually the essential raw materials in the manufacturing of fluoropolymers, fluorolubricants and quite a few refrigerants.This increase in demand paired with shortage of raw materials is mainly responsible for a dramatic price increase (almost double over the past year), shortages, and we expect both these factors to continue in the near future.
