Estadio Cuauhtémoc is a football stadium in Puebla City , Mexico. It is the home of Club Puebla . It is currently the fourth-biggest football stadium in Mexico by capacity. The stadium has been the host of the 1970 FIFA World Cup and the 1986 FIFA World Cup . From November 2014 – 2015, the stadium went through massive renovations.
23-606: As of November 2015, Cuauhtémoc Stadium is considered to be an innovation in textile design and sports architecture in Mexico, since it is the first and only stadium in Latin America to have a facade totally covered with ETFE . Estadio Cuauhtémoc has been the home for Puebla F.C. for the last 40 years and has witnessed various national and international tournaments the stadium has located in Puebla, Puebla Mexico. The Stadium
46-462: A dual laminate, ETFE can be bonded with FRP as a thermoplastic liner and used in pipes, tanks, and vessels for additional corrosion protection. ETFE is commonly used in the nuclear industry for tie or cable wraps and in the aviation and aerospace industries for wire coatings. This is because ETFE has better mechanical toughness than PTFE . In addition, ETFE exhibits a high-energy radiation resistance and can withstand moderately high temperatures for
69-411: A long period. Commercially deployed brand names of ETFE include Tefzel by DuPont , Fluon by Asahi Glass Company , Neoflon ETFE by Daikin , and Texlon by Vector Foiltec . Sumitomo Electric developed an aluminium-ETFE composite marketed as Sumiflon-E ( スミフロンE ) . Additionally, now a day the commercial use of architectural ETFE as skylight or facade materials has become very popular all over
92-621: A low friction coefficient, which saves on maintenance as dust and dirt do not stick. An example of its use is as pneumatic panels to cover the outside of the football stadium Allianz Arena or the Beijing National Aquatics Centre (a.k.a. the Water Cube of the 2008 Olympics) – the world's largest structure made of ETFE film ( laminate ). The panels of the Eden Project are also made from ETFE, and
115-754: A new proposal with ETFE because of the many advantages that ETFE had over other materials for that particular project. ETFE has been used in many world renowned architectural works, such as the Water Cube for the Olympics in Beijing , and by many European stadiums such as the Allianz Arena in Munich. Renovations started in November 2014 and were initially planned to be done by October 2015. Due to
138-465: A patch or multiple sheets assembled into larger panels. ETFE has an approximate tensile strength of 42 MPa (6100 psi), with a working temperature range of 89 K to 423 K ( −185 °C to +150 °C or −300 °F to +300 °F ). ETFE resins are resistant to ultraviolet light. An artificial weathering test (comparable to 30 years’ exposure) produced no filtering and almost no signs of film deterioration. ETFE systems can control light transmission through
161-437: A second time. This occurred due to Colombia announcing in 1983 that they were not going to be available to organize the tournament. In this World Cup, Puebla played a bigger role than the previous one in 1970. This time, the defending champions Italy played at El Estadio Cuauhtémoc. Italy played against Argentina on June 5, 1986, where they tied 1–1 with a goal from the football legend Diego Armando Maradona . The second game
184-610: Is a fluorine -based plastic . It was designed to have high corrosion resistance and strength over a wide temperature range. ETFE is a polymer and its source-based name is poly (ethene-co-tetrafluoroethene) . It is also known under the DuPont brand name Tefzel and is sometimes referred to as 'Teflon Film'. ETFE has a relatively high melting temperature and excellent chemical, electrical and high-energy radiation resistance properties. Useful comparison tables of PTFE against FEP , PFA and ETFE can be found on Chemours' website, listing
207-1031: Is used in aerospace applications such as carbon fiber pre-preg curing as a release film for molds or hot high-pressure plates.

230-592: The CONCACAF Champions League and Copa Interamericana . In 2008 the stadium was supposed to host its first Copa Sudamericana tournament, but did not after the CONCACAF decided to pull out of all CONMEBOL competitions due to the clubs' lack of interest in the domestic conference tournaments. Estadio Cuauhtémoc played host to the Uruguay national football team for the 1970 FIFA World Cup. In
253-590: The Governor of Puebla , Rafael Moreno Valle Rosas announced the official project. The stadium would grow in capacity from 42,648 to 51,726 spectators, and would be completely remodeled from the inside, with 2 new ramps built in the north and south side of the stadium, along many other things. Initially the facade of the stadium would be covered with crystal. Dünn Lightweight Architecture , experts in sports and textile architecture in Mexico and Latin America, made

#1732801423573276-479: The Tropical Islands have a 20,000 m window made from this translucent material. Another key use of ETFE is for the covering of electrical and fiber-optic wiring used in high-stress, low-fume-toxicity and high-reliability situations. Aircraft, spacecraft and motorsport wiring are primary examples. Some small cross-section wires like the wire used for the wire-wrap technique are coated with ETFE. As
299-478: The 1982-83 tournament when Puebla F.C. defeated C.D. Guadalajara The second final was played in the 1989-90 tournament against Club Universidad de Guadalajara where Puebla managed to beat the club from Jalisco 4-3. The stadium has also hosted the now defunct Copa México tournament, which the club managed to win in 1990, becoming just the 5th stadium to host both finals and have its home team win. The stadium has also hosted club international tournaments, such as
322-587: The application of plasma coatings, varnishes or printed frit patterns. Thermal and acoustic insulation can be incorporated into an ETFE structure via the use of multi-layer systems which use low-pressure air pumps to create ETFE "cushions". For instance u value of ETFE single layer, double and three layers are approximately: 5.6, 2.5 and 1.9 W/m2.k respectively while concerning g value of etfe cushion or SHGC in ETFE systems it can vary between 0.2 to 0.95 using frits and for further info about SHGC in ETFE refer to ETFE
345-619: The city's rainy season, construction slowed down and in August 2015 it was announced that the construction would be done by November 2015. As of November 2015, the Cuauhtémoc stadium would be the first and only stadium in Mexico and Latin America to have a facade completely covered with ETFE . On November 18 the stadium was reopened in a friendly match against Boca Juniors of Argentina before Puebla's final week of Liga MX Apertura 2015. ETFE Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene ( ETFE )
368-422: The final and deciding goal, sending Belgium to the semi-finals. In that match, the stadium registered the biggest crowd with an attendance of 45,000. In 2012 the state of Puebla was named to host the 2013 CONCACAF U-20 Championship . Puebla FC announced a complete renovation of the stadium that was set to begin in the late 2014. The stadium was old, in bad condition, and needed a fresh new image. In early 2014,
391-418: The first game on June 2, 1970 Uruguay defeated Israel 2-0. The second match was against Italy, which ended in a scoreless draw. The third match was against Sweden, where Uruguay fell 1-0. Players such as Sandro Mazzola and Luigi Riva went on to play in the finals against Brazil , which they lost to 4-1. In 1986 Mexico hosted the 13th World Cup, becoming the first country to ever host the competition for
414-437: The mechanical, thermal, chemical and electrical properties of each, side by side. ETFE is effectively the high-strength version of the other three in this group. ETFE film is self-cleaning (due to its nonstick properties) and recyclable. As a film for roofing it can be stretched and still be taut if some variation in size, such as that caused by thermal expansion, were to occur. Employing heat welding, tears can be repaired with
437-568: The world not only in Europe, in middle east for instance many shopping malls, sports and cultural mega venues developments has utilized ETFE for example recent huge greenhouse park development in Abu Dhabi (Mawasem Park – Green House – Abu Dhabi House ) managed by Fabrix360 ETFE expert Due to its high temperature resistance ETFE is also used in film mode as a mold-release film. ETFE film offered by Guarniflon or Airtech International and Honeywell
