Packaging & Availability
- Packaging Type
- Packaging
Fluon+ FP-EF-101 is packed in fiber drums containing 130 pounds.
Storage & Handling
- 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.
