Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Hyflon® PFA P450 Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA)  (Unverified Data**)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Fluoropolymer; Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA)

Material Notes: Hyflon® PFA is a family of semi-crystalline, melt processable perfluoropolymers which combine excellent mechanical characteristics to properties such as chemical inertness, heat resistance, inherent flame resistance, low surface energy, and exceptional dielectric properties. Hyflon® PFA resins have been designed to retain their properties over a wide range of temperatures from cryogenic to 250-260°C (482-500°F) and are the material of choice in applications such as linings in the Chemical Process Industry, specialty cables, semiconductor industry, aerospace, and other challenging industries.

Hyflon® PFA P450 is a medium molecular weight, high melt flow rate multi purpose resin designed for cable extrusion and injection molding. Hyflon® PFA P450 has obtained UL758 recognition for continuous use at 260°C (500°F) and is an ASTM D3307 - Type I resin.

Key Attributes: Flame Retardant; High Flow; High Heat Resistance; Medium Molecular Weight; Semi Crystalline

Applications: Aerospace Applications; Cable Jacketing; Liners; Semiconductor Molding Compounds

Agency Ratings: ASTM D3307 Type I; UL 758

PROCESSING
- Because PFA is corrosive in the melt, machinery used to process Hyflon should be lined with corrosion resistant alloys. Clean, reworked material can be used up to 25% in weight.

HEALTH SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
- Hyflon PFA P450 is a very inert polymer and it is not harmful if used and handled according to standard processing procedures. If handled inappropriately, it may release harmful toxic chemicals. Please refer to the Material Safety Data Sheets for more information on handling and safety.

PACKAGING AND STORAGE
- Hyflon PFA P450 resin is available in 25 kg (55 lbs.) and 500 kg (1102 lbs.) packaging. Though it has an indefinite shelf life, it is recommended to store it in a clean area, protected by direct sun light and possible contamination.
