AGC Chemicals Americas, Inc. Fluon+™ TL-120 is a white, FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) micropowder with a very small particle size. It has excellent thickening power when used as an extreme pressure (EP) agent in hydrocarbon and fluorosilicone fluids, and is used to meet MLGI Class 2 Specifications. Fluon+ TL-120 is ideally suited as an additive to all solid and liquid media. In printing inks, it may be used as an anti-scuff and release agent. It is suitable for 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.
