Overview
Viton™ A-700 fluoroelastomer is an A-type gum polymer composed of hexafluoropropylene (HFP) and vinylidene fluoride (VF₂).
Viton™ A-700 contains 66% fluorine content, is easy to process, and offers excellent physical properties. Viton™ A-700 is a high-viscosity polymer best suited for compression molding applications. Alongside the improved flow and easy processing benefits, this gum improves tear properties and compression set resistance.
Features & Benefits
- Excellent flow rate
- Easy mold release
- Resistance to mold fouling
- Improved compression set resistance
- Enhanced tear strength
Problems Solved
Processability and compatibility of fluoroelastomers and Viton™ gums in compression molding processes and applications
Low resistance to compression set and high tear in rubbers and elastomeric applications
Troublesome processing FKM compounds due to high polymer content that results in rough extrudates or flow issues
Applications
Fuel injector O-rings and rubber parts
Compression molding of gaskets, O-rings, and seals
Profile extrusions, such as cords and tubing
Calendered sheets, when a blend of gum polymers is used
Extrusion applications of rubber and elastomers
Can be blended with other gum polymers to alter the viscosity
Coatings of fabrics or other substrates
