3M™ Dynamar™ Polymer Processing Additive FX 5914

  • 3M Product Number 5914
  • 3M ID B40064694

Some fluoropolymer processing additives can chemically react with amines and other strongly basic chemicals, reducing their effectiveness. FX 5914 is non-reactive and can be used with amine-containing additives such as hindered amine light stabilizers or with basic polymers like nylon.

FX 5914 is particularly useful in high viscosity, high molecular weight engineering thermoplastics. It is particularly useful at low levels to reduce extruder die build-up.

Another unique application for FX 5914 is the reduction of time required to transition from one pigmented material to another. The PPA prevents stagnation and build-up of pigments inside the extruder and die.
