Processing
Hyflon® PFA P7310 is intended as a topcoat material to apply to primered substrates. It can be processed using normal electrostatic powder coating techniques. Generally the procedure involves substrate preparation, coating, baking and cooling.
Hyflon® PFA P7310 can be used neat and without any further formulation. Several passes may be required to obtain the desired PFA load and build up coating thickness without defects.
Substrate preparation, gun parameters such as voltage and both oven temperature and time must all be well controlled to achieve defect free coated items.
Storage and Handling
Hyflon® melt processable fluropolymer resins can be stored without shelf life issues when kept in a clean and dry area at ambient temperatures. Opened containers should be tightly resealed to prevent any contamination.
Safety and Toxicology
Before using Hyflon® melt processable fluropolymer resins consult the product Material Safety Data Sheet and follow all label directions and handling precautions.
As with all fluoropolymer materials, handling and processing should only be carried out in well ventilated areas. Vapor extractor units should be installed above processing equipment. Fumes must not be inhaled and eye and skin contact ought to be avoided. In case of skin contact wash with soap and water. In case of eye contact flush with water immediately and seek medical help. Do not smoke in areas contaminated with powder, vapor or fumes.
See Material Safety Data Sheet for detailed advice on waste disposal methods.
Packaging
Hyflon® PFA P7310 is packaged in 10kg non returnable drums. Each drum has two bags liner made of polyethylene resin. |
