Abstract
A method for manufacturing a polytetrafluoroethylene fine powder characterized by including the steps of (1) preparing an aqueous dispersion containing polytetrafluoroethylene, water, and a surfactant (A); (2) coagulating the polytetrafluoroethylene in the aqueous dispersion by agitating the aqueous dispersion with a discharge flow-type impeller; (3) collecting a wet powder of the polytetrafluoroethylene; and (4) drying the wet powder of the polytetrafluoroethylene.
