Zonyl™ MP 1100
PTFE Additive

Product Information
Description
Zonyl MP 1100 fluoroadditive is a white, free-flowing,
PTFE powder designed for use as an additive in othermaterials. It can be used at temperatures from –190 °C
to 250 °C (–310 °F to 480 °F) and is inert to nearly allindustrial chemicals and solvents. It is well suited foruse in inks and coatings, where a narrow particle size
distribution is desired. It is a good electrical insulator,
does not absorb water, and is highly resistant toweathering. Its properties are summarized in Table 1.
™

Zonyl™ MP 1100 can impart:• Low surface energy• Improved lubricity and wear in plastics and elastomers• Improved performance in lubricants under severe
conditions• Improved nonstick and antifriction properties
Zonyl™ MP 1100 tends to form clumps of particles, but
it can be de-agglomerated during mixing and blending
operations. Agglomerates of the resin are friable, acharacteristic that helps in producing an intimate mixture
with host materials. As the resin is dispersed in a solvent
for particle size measurement, the agglomerates break
down and may approach the 0.2 μm particle size.
Typical Applications
Zonyl™ MP 1100 is used as an additive (at approximately
1–3% by weight) in the preparation of offset, gravure, andflexographic printing inks. It improves certain properties,
such as rub and slip resistance. It is used in combination
with polyethylene waxes to obtain the desired degree ofproperty modification. Due to its small particle size andnarrow particle size distribution, Zonyl™ MP 1100 has

been found useful in a variety of coating systems. Typicalloadings of 5–20% by weight are used in plastics andelastomers.
• Provides improvements in corrosion inhibition• Reduces wettability• Reduces “blocking” in inks
• Improves gloss and surface smoothness
Food Contact Compliance
Products are generally not recommended for foodcontact. For details and information, please contact yourChemours representative.
Safety Precautions
WARNING! VAPORS CAN BE LIBERATED THAT MAY BE
HAZARDOUS IF INHALED.
Before using Zonyl™ fluoroadditives, refer to the Safety
Data Sheet and the latest edition of “The Guide to theSafe Handling of Fluoropolymer Resins,” published byPlastics Industry Association (www.fluoropolymers.org) or
PlasticsEurope (www.plasticseurope.org).
Open and use containers only in well-ventilated areasusing local exhaust ventilation (LEV). Vapors and fumes
liberated during hot processing of Zonyl™ fluoroadditives
should be exhausted completely from the work area.
Contamination of tobacco with these polymers must
be avoided. Vapors and fumes liberated during hot
processing that are not properly exhausted, or fromsmoking tobacco or cigarettes contaminated with Zonyl™
fluoroadditives, may cause flu-like symptoms, such as
chills, fever, and sore throat. This may not occur until
several hours after exposure and will typically pass within
about 24 hours.
