Tecnoflon NM (FKM : Perfluoroelastomers)

Tecnoflon® NM is a fluoroelastomer copolymer used as an additive in order to offer unique benefits to polymer resins, such as the elimination of melt fracture and the reduction of die buildup.

Key features
  • Elimination of melt fracture (shark-skin effect)
  • Reduction of die build-up
  • Improvement of the surface finish with high gloss levels
  • Faster production start-up
  • Pressure reduction
  • Higher output at constant die pressure and temperature
  • Lower energy consumption
 
Normally a final concentration of only 100 to 1000 ppm Tecnoflon® NM FKM is sufficient to achieve the mentioned benefits.

Applications
Tecnoflon® NM FKM has been developed particularly to improve extrusion, blow molding, and rotomolding of low density polyethylene, high density polyethylene, and linear low density polyethylene as a processing aid.

It's usage is ideal for the production of blown and cast film mainly used for:
  • Industrial packaging film
  • Agricultural film
  • (Co-extruded) food packaging film
  • BOPP film
