3M™ Dyneon™ Flouroelastomer FC 2179 is a composition of di-polymer of vinylidene fluoride and hexafluoropropylene. Product characteristics include:
Higher viscosity
Process targets: compression molding
Excellent compression set resistance
Proprietary incorporated cure technology
Dyneon FC 2179 can be compounded using standard water cooled internal mixers or two-roll mills with standard fillers and ingredients utilized in typical fluoroelastomer formulations. The “dry” ingredients should be blended before adding to the masticated gum. For best results, FC 2179 should be banded on the mill several minutes prior to adding the blended dry ingredients. Once mixed, the compounded stocks have good scorch resistance and storage stability.
