PTFE Dispersion TF 5035Z

Product Description
3M™ Dyneon™ PTFE Dispersion TF 5035Z is a milky-white, water-based fluoropolymer dispersion. The dispersion has a solids content
of around 58 %. The spherical hydrophobic polymer particles have an average size of around 200 nm. The polymer has a density of
approximately 2.2 g/ml.

Typical Properties
3M™ Dyneon™ PTFE Dispersion TF 5035Z is supplied with a pH value of 9 – 11. The dispersion can be mixed with fillers or pigments for use in coating
formulations. Dilution is possible at any time but should be carried out with desalinated water.

Typical Applications
3M™ Dyneon™ PTFE Dispersion TF 5035Z is mainly used to formulate non-stick coatings for manufacturing cookware and baking tins. It is also used
for technical metal coatings for corrosion protection and to improve sliding properties.
For coating metal surfaces, various techniques such as spray coating, roller coating and silk-screen coating can be employed. The formulations have to
be adjusted for each technique.

Processing Recommendations
Dyneon recommends that the dispersion always be gently homogenised before processing and filtered using a 50 µm filter.
When adding pigments and fillers, make sure that these do not negatively influence the excellent stability of the product. If necessary, stabilisers should
be added to the mixture. If fillers or pigments require grinding, this should be carried out before they are added to the dispersion.
The dispersion can be used for manufacturing primers, intermediate layers or top coats. In order to optimise the coating result with regard to shine and
porosity, Dyneon recommends adding small amounts of fluorothermoplastic polymers such as 3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroplastic PFA 6900GZ, PFA 6910GZ
or FEP 6300GZ.
To dry the layers Dyneon recommends a three-step, ideally continuous process with pre-drying at 90 – 120 °C, intermediate drying at 230 – 320 °C and
then final sintering at 360 – 400 °C. The temperatures should be selected taking into account the substrate thickness, coating thickness and throughput
speed. A flawlessly sintered polymer layer is always transparent and smoothly coalesced.

Storage and Handling


The aqueous dispersion must be stored under frost-proof conditions (5 – 30 °C). Although 3M™ Dyneon™ PTFE Dispersion TF 5035Z has a low settling
tendency, it should be homogenised once or twice a month by gentle rolling or stirring. Should sediment still build up, it can be redispersed by
homogenising the dispersion as described above.

Safety Instructions
Follow the normal precautions observed with all fluoropolymer materials.
Please consult the Material Safety Data Sheet and Product Label for information regarding the safe handling of the material. By following all precautions
and safety measures, processing these products poses no known health risks. General handling/processing precautions include: 1) Process only in well-
ventilated areas. 2) Do not smoke in areas contaminated with powder/residue from these products. 3) Avoid eye contact. 4) If skin comes into contact
with these products during handling, wash with soap and water afterwards. 5) Avoid contact with hot fluoropolymer.
Potential hazards, including release of toxic vapours, can arise if processing occurs under excessively high temperature conditions. Vapour extractor
units should be installed above processing equipment. When cleaning processing equipment, do not burn off any of this product with a naked flame or
in a furnace.
