AGC Fluon® LM-720A ETFE
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Fluoropolymer; ETFE/ECTFE

Material Notes: Description: Fluon® LM-ETFE is a modified ethylene/tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) polymer. Fluon LM-ETFE is different than most other ETFE materials in that it has a lower melting point (225°C versus 260°C for most ETFE), better chemical resistance and thermal stability, improved optical clarity, better flexibility, and a higher limiting oxygen index (40% versus 31%). It is processable by conventional extrusion and injection molding techniques. Rotomolding and rotolining grades are also available.

Benefits

  • High resistance to heat
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Good physical toughness
  • Low smoke and flame characteristics: Fluon LM-ETFE is rated 94 V-0 by Underwriters Laboratories Inc.
  • Outstanding resistance to weather and aging
  • Good dielectric properties
  • Non-stick characteristics
Applications:
  • Film and sheets
  • Valves, fittings, and housings
  • Tubing and pipe
  • Wire & cable
  • Filter media
  • Vessel linings
