DuPont Mobility and Materials VTR GLT Peroxide Cured Fluoroelastomer (FKM) Formulation
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Fluoropolymer, TS; Thermoset Fluoroelastomer; Rubber or Thermoset Elastomer (TSE)

Material Notes: Viton® VTR-8500 is a peroxide cured polymer intended to be an upgrade to Viton® GLT. VTR-8500 utilizes an Advanced Polymer Architecture technology which includes a new peroxide cure site along with an optimized molecular weight distribution designed to deliver a polymer which:
  • Cures exceptionally fast to a high state of cure
  • Shows improved mold release/mold fouling properties compared to GLT and GLT 305
  • Shows improved mold flow, less shear sensitivity, and lower extruder die swell for a ~65 Mooney FKM
  • Shows excellent physical properties with high elongation in either the original or aging tests
  • Shows similar to improved heat, fluids, and low temperature resistance compared to GLT
  • Shows excellent compression set resistance with little (2 hr at 232°C ) or no postcure

It is recommended if mixing in an internal mixer to use at least a 70% load factor. The recommended process aid for VTR-8500 is 0.5 phr of Armeen® 18D.
