Description: FL1680 lubricant is a white, finely divided, low molecular weight powder manufactured from virgin PTFE feedstock. It has an average particle size of 11 microns, a narrow particle size distribution and low surface area. FL1680 is virtually immune from chemical attack, is water repellent, has good electrical insulation properties, a wide working temperature range and has excellent weathering and ageing characteristics. Applications: FL1680 is primarily used as an additive in other materials to improve wear resistance and enhance lubricity, non-stick and frictional characteristics of the host media. It may be incorporated into products such as printing inks, oils, greases and industrial finishes. FL1680 is particularly suitable for use in printing inks and industrial finishes due to its fine particle size but may also be used in oil, grease and sealing paste applications where low starting torque and a smooth sliding action is required. Lubricant powder applications, properties and processing data are contained in the Lubricant Applications Brochure, available upon request. Information provided by AGC Chemicals Americas Inc. |
