Abstract

The present invention relates to a fluoropolymeric substrate that is formed from at least one layer of porous, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene having a void volume of at least 50% and containing 15 to at most 40% by weight adhesive that is evenly distributed within the substrate to allow exterior surfaces of said substrate to be free of adhesive after bonding while forming a discontinuous internal layer of adhesive interrupted by the skeletal structure of the substrate.
