3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic Granules THV 500GZ

• 3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic THV 500GZ provides a balance of low temperature processing, low flammability, thermal stability, and melt processability. This product exhibits excellent weatherability and good anti-soiling properties.
• 3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic THV 500GZ can be used for extruded films, tubes, profiles, and wire coating, and for applications that require flexibility, low temperature processing and good chemical resistance. Its present applications range from barrier layer in automotive hoses and seals in chemical containment to protective layers in photovoltaic backsheets.
• Excellent permeation resistance to fuels
• Bondable to itself and other substrates (for multi-layer constructions)
• Processing profile allows co-processing with olefinic plastics and hydrocarbon elastomers
• Low flammability
• High transparency
• Excellent UV stability
• Low refractive index
• Bondability to many elastomers and plastics
• Good chemical resistance
• Low temperature processability

3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic THV 500GZ is a fluorothermoplastic containing tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene and vinylidene fluoride. Because of its well-balanced profile of low temperature processing, low flammability, thermal stability and melt processability, this product should preferably be used for extruded film, profiles, wire coatings, and tubes, for example in automotive fuel hoses. Special Features Excellent flexibility, Excellent chemical resistance.

Dyneon™ THV (a polymer of tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene and vinylidene fluoride) provides a combination of performance advantages, such as low processing temperature, ability to bond to elastomers and hydrocarbon-based plastics, flexibility and optical clarity. These combined advantages create new opportunities to make multilayer hoses, tubes, sheets and films that can be used in a variety of markets and applications such as automotive, chemical processing, semiconductor, solar energy, optical fiber and architectural and protective coatings.
