Hyflon® PFA is a unique family of semi-crystalline, melt processable perfluoropolymers which combine excellent mechanical characteristics to unique properties such as chemical inertness, heat resistance, inherent flame resistance, low surface energy, and exceptional dielectric properties. Hyflon® PFA resins have been designed to retain their properties over a wide range of temperatures from cryogenic to 300°C (572°F) and are the material of choice in applications such as linings in the Chemical Process Industry, Oil and Gas, Specialty Cables, Semiconductor Industry, Aerospace, and other challenging industries.
Hyflon® PFA P125X is a low melt flow rate resin designed for pipe extrusion, where very high viscosity and melt strength are needed. It also has significantly lower permeability to gasses than standard PFAs. Hyflon® PFA P125X is an ASTM D3307 - Type XV resin.Applications: Aerospace Applications; Cable Jacketing; Liners; Oil/Gas Applications; Piping; Semiconductor Molding Compounds; Tubing Features: Flame Retardant; High Heat Resistance; Low Flow; Semi Crystalline PROCESSING
Because PFA is corrosive in the melt, machinery used to process Hyflon® should be lined with corrosion resistant alloys. HEALTH SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
Hyflon® PFA 125X is a very inert polymer and it is not harmful if used and handled according to standard processing procedures.
If handled inappropriately, it may release harmful toxic chemicals. PACKAGING AND STORAGE
Hyflon® PFA 125X resin is available in 25 kg (55 lbs.) and 600 kg (1323 lbs.) packaging. Though it has an indefinite shelf life, it is recommended to store it in a clean area, protected from direct sunlight, and possible contamination. Information provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers. |
