| Zonyl™ MP 1000 fluoroadditive is a white, free-flowing, PTFE powder designed for use as an additive in other materials or as a dry lubricant. It can be used at temperatures from –190 °C to 250 °C (–310 °F to 480 °F), and is inert to nearly all industrial chemicals and solvents. It is a good electrical insulator, does not absorb water, and is highly resistant to weathering. Features: Low surface energy, improved lubricity and wear in plastics and elastomers, and improved performance in lubricants under severe conditions. Applications: Typical loadings of 5 to 20% by weight are used. Plastics that can benefit in this manner include polyacetals, polyamides, polycarbonates, polyesters, polyimides, polysulfides, and polysulfones; elastomers include acrylates, fluoroelastomers, neoprenes, nitriles, and silicones. Added to high-viscosity specialty lubricants designed for use under high pressure, Zonyl™ MP 1000 may increase lubricity and service life, especially at high temperatures or in corrosive environments. It has been used in silicone, fluorosilicone, and hydrocarbon lubricant bases. Smooth, uniform suspensions can be made using conventional blending methods.Information provided by Chemours. |
