Extreme ETP-600S™

Fluoroelastomers

Technical Information
Introduction
Viton™ Extreme™ ETP-600S* combines the excellent
thermal resistance of Viton™ fluoroelastomers with uniqueresistance to chemicals and environments that havehistorically exceeded the capabilities of conventional
fluoroelastomers. Viton™ Extreme™ ETP-600S provides:• Excellent resistance to acid, hydrocarbon, and low
molecular weight esters, ketones, and aldehydes• Inherent resistance to base attack and volume changes
in highly caustic solutions, amines, and hot water• Low-temperature flexibility (Tg –10 °C [14 °F])
Compounds based on ETP-600S can be readily
processed in the same manner used for mixing,
preforming, and molding conventional fluoroelastomers.
Safety and Handling
Before handling or processing Viton™ Extreme™ ETP-600S,
be sure to read and be guided by the suggestions in theChemours technical bulletin, “Handling Precautions for
Viton™ and Related Chemicals.”*Viton™ Extreme™ ETP-600S was formerly named VTR-8710.
