3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic Dispersion THV 340Z
- 3M Product Number THV 340Z
- 3M ID B40070208
Details
Highlights
- Designed for use as an aqueous-based fluoroplastic coating
- Good resistance to chemicals and weathering
- Relatively low fusion/sintering temperature
- Outstanding flexibility relative to other fluoroplastics
- Good optical clarity and light transmission
- Weldable to itself and many other elastomers and plastics
Flexible, transparent fluoroplastic composed of tetrafluoroethylene, hexafluoropropylene, and vinylidene fluoride in the form of an aqueous dispersion. Provides a balance of low temperature processing, low flammability, thermal stability, and good processability for coating.
Properties and Applications
3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic Dispersion THV 340Z is mainly used to formulate coatings for flat substrates, or fibers, yarns or fabrics for use in harsh environments to protect against thermal, chemical or weathering attack. Because of its low melting point compared to other fluoropolymers, Dyneon fluoroplastic dispersion THV 340Z can be used for coating of known fluoropolymer-compatible substrates such as glass, aramid fabrics or films of PA and PI, and also for the coating of temperature-sensitive substrates such as PET, PE or PP. After a Dyneon THV 340Z coating is created and dried, a thermal step is required in order to create a sintered continuous layer.
Backed by Unparalleled Research and Customer Support
Like all of our products, 3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic Dispersion THV 340Z is backed by skilled researchers at several 3M tech service laboratories.
