Fluon+™ TL-171EZ

1 of 219 products in this brand
AGC Chemicals Americas, Inc. Fluon+™ TL-171EZ is a white PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) micropowder which is easy to disperse in a wide range of liquids. The reduced total surface areas of Fluon+ TL-171EZ minimizes viscosity increase during mixing. The particles are soft, however, and retain good film forming capability. This combination of properties makes Fluon+ TL-171EZ very useful in coating formulations. Fluon® TL-171EZ is suitable for use in food contact applications.

Handling Precautions
  • Heating Fluon® and Fluon+™ products in excess of 750°F (399°C) can produce toxic fumes. It is, therefore, necessary to provide local exhaust ventilation in areas where Fluon® products are exposed to high temperatures. Avoid breathing fumes or contaminating smoking tobacco with fumes, powder, or dust.
  • Thermal decomposition of this product will generate hydrogen fluoride, which is corrosive. Corrosion resistance materials are required for prolonged contact with molten resin.
