施すためには大量のテフロン樹脂を必要とする。The Teflon resin lining shown in FIG. 3 has a low dimensional accuracy due to the lining (lining) process, and its use is limited (not suitable for a fluid passage for precision equipment).
Since it is 5 μm or more, the inner diameter of the passage becomes smaller,
The flow rate decreases. In addition, when the dimensions of the passage are relatively small, it is difficult to apply a Teflon resin lining to the inner surface, and the thickness of the lining layer is not uniform, and the pressure loss due to the change in the cross-sectional area of the passage. Occurs. Since the Teflon resin lining has a large film thickness, a large amount of Teflon resin is required to cover the entire passage.
