Molding versatility

Tecnoflon Base Resistant FKM may be compression, injection or transfer molded.

Compression Molding

Compression molding is the oldest and most common form of molding of FKMs.

Transfer Molding

A medium viscosity polymer is recommended. A careful consideration of cure rate is important to ensure scorch safety.

Injection Molding

Injection molding is the most demanding molding process. The injection molding grade selected should have a molecular weight distribution to achieve the best flow and good scorch safety with a very steep cure rate. Molding fouling must be minimized by using formulations minimizing process aids and metal oxides.

Extrusion

Extrusion of FKMs is used to form extruded shapes, tubing, O-ring cord, and compression molding pre-forms.
