Fluon+™ FC 482 SPL (340482030)

Chemical Family
Fluoropolymers

AGC Chemicals Americas, Inc. Fluon+™ FC 482 SPL (340482030) is a bronze powder and molybdenum disulfide filled PTFE product designed for use in seal applications. This compound is supplied in round pelletized form, with pellets ranging in size from approximately 350 - 800 microns. The addition of bronze powder and molybdenum disulfide improves the thermal and electrical conductivity, as well as the wear properties and deformation resistance of PTFE, without compromising the chemical and thermal resistance of the polymer.

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.

Safe Use and Handling

A summary of the hazards, as defined by OSHA Hazard Communication Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1200 for this product are: Physical hazards: None Health hazards: None
