Product Texts
 

Kynar® FLEX 3120-50

 

 

Kynar® FLEX are fluorinated thermoplastic copolymers.

 

Outstanding characteristics of Kynar® FLEX : chemical resistance,

imperviousness to UV, high barrier properties, high purity,good mechanical

and thermomechanical properties.

 

Main applications of Kynar® FLEX : corrosion protection in the chemical

industry, coating (painting, extrusion), wire and cable.

 

Kynar® FLEX 3120-50 is a grade which exhibits, compared to 2800,

a higher melting point which allows a greater range for use.

For cable coating, extrusion of tube and plaque, compression moulding

of bulky parts.
