- Applications
FL1680 is primarily used as an additive in other materials to improve wear resistance and enhance lubricity, non-stick and frictional characteristics of the host media. It may be incorporated into products such as printing inks, oils, greases and industrial finishes. FL1680 is particularly suitable for use in printing inks and industrial finishes due to its fine particle size but may also be used in oil, grease and sealing paste applications where low starting torque and a smooth sliding action is required.

Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Packaging
FL1680 is supplied in 25 kg laminated fiber board kegs.
Storage & Handling
- Storage
The powder is contained within two polythene liners, individually sealed. Kegs of FL1680 should be stored in cool dry conditions prior to use.
- 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.
