PFO is a high-performance polymer known for its exceptional thermal stability and rigidity, making it suitable for demanding applications requiring sustained exposure to elevated temperatures. It is primarily employed in aerospace, automotive, and electronics industries where components must withstand thermal stress while maintaining structural integrity. Engineers select PFO over conventional polymers when long-term performance at high temperatures is critical and where the material's combination of stiffness and thermal endurance justifies the cost.
