I. CHEMICAL IDENTIFICATION

Identify the product (e.g fluoropolymer dispersion) for which you are submitting 

information: 

 

 Product name:_ Liquid PTFE dispersions__ 

 

 Product description (including concentrations of perfluoroalkyl chemicals 

 identified in Section IV below and year of production): 

This product family consists of the commercially available aqueous PTFE dispersions. The 

PTFE dispersions contain an average of 59 % by weight of PTFE in water. The use of APFO for 

the manufacture of the Liquid PTFE dispersions ceased on April 1, 2008, and the new emulsifier 

was used exclusively after that date. Before April 2008, all PTFE dispersion were “APFO 

Reduced” dispersions. The typical APFO content of the “APFO Reduced” PTFE dispersions 

was 5 ppm based on wet weight of product. All of the products made using APFO were sold in 

2008.

B. ANALYTICAL METHODS 

Analyses should be conducted using the most accurate instrumentation and procedures 

available as of the time of testing. Please provide detailed information on the methods 

used (including analytical standards used, sampling, sample treatment, analysis), 

assumptions made, uncertainties and detection limits (LOD, LOQ) for the data provided. 

APFO concentration in liquid dispersion products is determined by esterifying the APFO in the 

dispersion sample with methanol and strong acid, and quantifying it with a head space gas 

chromatography method using a mass spectrometer detector. The usual control blanks and 

spikes are run. Detection limit is 1 ppm, RSD is +/- 1%.

information: 

 

 Product name: Dry Resin Products_

 

Product description (including concentrations of perfluoroalkyl 

chemicals identified in Section IV below and year of production): 

This product family consisted of the commercially available melt processible 

fluoroplastics (PFA, FEP, ETFE, THV, etc.) and PTFE, all sold as dry pellets or powders. 

The average APFO content of these products were all very similar, typically below 5 ppm 

0.02% based on the weight of product. The use of APFO for the manufacture of the melt 

processible fluoroplastics was discontinued in July 2008. The use of APFO for the 

manufacture of PTFE dry resin products was discontinued at the end of December, 2008. 

The new emulsifier was used to manufacture these products after the dates mentioned 

above.
