DuPont Mobility and Materials VTR 8600 (GF-S) Peroxide Cured Fluoroelastomer (FKM)  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Fluoropolymer, TS; Thermoset Fluoroelastomer; Rubber or Thermoset Elastomer (TSE)

Material Notes: VTR-8600 is a 70% fluorine peroxide cured polymer similar to Viton® GF but utilizes DuPont Dow's new Advanced Polymer Architecture technology which significantly improves processing and curing characteristics. Advanced Polymer Architecture technology in VTR-8600 upgraded the peroxide cure site along with optimizing the molecular architecture to deliver a polymer which:
  • Cures exceptionally fast to a high state of cure
  • Shows improved mold release/mold fouling properties compared to Viton® GF
  • Shows improved mold flow, less shear sensitivity, and lower extruder die swell for a ~65 Mooney FKM
  • Shows excellent physical properties with high elongation, both original and aged
  • Shows similar heat, fluids, and low temperature resistance compared to Viton® GF
  • Shows excellent compression set resistance with little (2 hr) or no postcure

When mixing VTR-8600 in an internal mixer it is recommended that at least a 70% load factor be used.
