Fluo HTG

FLUO HTG is a micronized Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) which has been developed for use in areas where excellent heat resistance, slip and rub resistance are required.

FLUO HTG has been processed to a 1.0-1.5 NPIRI grind gauge reading to allow for easy dispersion into printing inks and coatings. Due to its very fine particle size, FLUO HTG can either be pre-dispersed into a paste or added directly into most inks and coatings with conventional mixing equipment.

FLUO HTG is most effective when used at low levels (1/2-1%) as an additive to either our MP grades of micronized synthetic waxes or our MPP grades of micronized polyethylenes. A low percentage of FLUO HTG gives the most dramatic improvement. The addition of a small amount of FLUO HTG along with our grades of waxes or polyethylenes allows each material to perform with maximum efficiency.

FLUO HTG is especially recommended for use in Heat-Set, Quick-Set, IR, UV and metal Decorating Printing Inks and Overprint Varnishes.

At temperatures above 600oF, some polymer fumes may be emitted due to oxidation of the fluorocarbon polymer. Therefore, smoking should not be permitted when working with this material.
