Fluon+™ FEP 108 Blue Concentrate
AGC Chemicals Americas, Inc. Fluon+™ FEP 108 Blue Concentrate is a blue-colored concentrate designed for use in high-flow FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) for pigmentation. The color concentrate is based on Daikin Neoflon® FEP NP-108 and is supplied in cylindrical pellet form. These pellets are approximately 0.080 inches long by 0.080 inches in diameter. It finds applications in colored injection-molded parts, film, tubing, colored wire or jacket insulation where a pigmented appearance is required.

- 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.
