Description
Zonyl® MP 1200 fluoroadditive is a white free-flowing PTFE powder designed for use as an additive in other materials to impart low-surface energy and other fluoropolymer attributes. In particular, it has been found well suited for use in inks and coatings where a narrow particle size distribution is desired. With plastics and elastomers, it provides improved lubricity and wear resistance. Added to lubricants, it can enhance performance under severe conditions. Zonyl® MP 1200 can be used at temperatures from -190 to 250℃ (-310 to 480℉).

Zonyl® MP 1200 is generally intended to be used as an additive, although it can also be used alone as a dry lubricant. Its properties (see Table 1), including a relatively low molecular weight, make this material unsuitable as a molding or extrusion resin. It, therefore, is not a replacement for any of the Teflon® high molecular weight fluoropolymer resins in these applications.

Typical Property Data for
Zonyl ® MP 1200 Fluoroadditive

Note: Meets ASTM D5675, Type I, Grade 1, Class A.

Zonyl® MP 1200 is inert to nearly all industrial chemicals and solvents. It is a good electrical insulator, does not absorb water, and is highly resistant to weathering.

Typical Applications
Zonyl® MP 1200 is used as an additive (at approxi-mately 1–3% by weight) in the preparation of offset, gravure, and flexographic printing inks. It improves certain properties, such as rub resistance, slip, surface smoothness, and gloss. In addition, “block-ing” can also be reduced. Typically, Zonyl® MP 1200 is used in combination with polyethylene waxes to obtain the desired degree of property modification. Due to its small particle size and narrow particle size distribution, Zonyl® MP 1200 has been found useful in a variety of coating systems. By adding Zonyl® MP 1200, considerable changes in the properties of the coating system can be achieved:
• Improvement of nonstick and antifriction properties
• Reduction of friction coefficient and increase in rub resistance
• Improvement in corrosion inhibition
• Reduction of wettability
Plastic and elastomeric parts containing Zonyl® MP 1200 fluoroadditive have shown improved lubricity and reduced friction and wear compared with similar parts made without this additive.  Typical loadings of 5-20% by weight were used.

Safety Precautions
WARNING!
VAPORS CAN BE LIBERATED THAT MAY BE HAZARDOUS IF INHALED.
Before using Zonyl® MP 1200, read the Material Safety Data Sheet and the detailed information in the “Guide to the Safe Handling of Fluoropolymer Resins,” latest edition, published by the Fluoro-polymers Division of The Society of the Plastics Industry—available from DuPont.
Open and use containers only in well-ventilated areas using local exhaust ventilation (LEV). Vapors and fumes liberated during hot processing, or from smoking tobacco or cigarettes contaminated with Zonyl® MP 1200, may cause flu-like symptoms (chills, fever, sore throat) that may not occur until several hours after exposure and typically pass within 24 hours. Vapors and fumes liberated during hot processing should be exhausted completely from the work area; contamination of tobacco with polymers should be avoided.
Mixtures with some finely divided metals, such as magnesium or aluminum, can be flammable or explosive under some conditions.

Packaging
Zonyl® MP 1200 is packaged in 25-kg (55.1-lb) and 91-kg (200-lb) drums. Eight 25-kg or four 91-kg drums are packaged on one pallet for ease of shipping, handling, and storage.
