TFMA-6

FluorN TFMA-6 is a fluorosurfactant dry melt additive for plastic devices such as pipette tips, tubing and micro-centrifuge tubes. The surfactant blooms on the device surface to provide water contact angles of ~110 degrees. Contact angles to mineral oil of ~65 degrees. TFMA is compounded into polypropylene at 0.5% to make pipette tips and other plastic devices water, oil, and solvent repellent. TFMA prevents water, oil, buffers, solvents, biological-fluids, and other materials from sticking to device surfaces. TFMA is used in industrial, research, and biomedical applications. Size: 200 grams Application methods: Dry melt additive for injection molding Color: Colorless Water contact angle: over 110° Mineral oil contact angle: over 65° TFMA is a hydrophobic dry-melt compounding additive for polypropylene. TFMA is provided as a solid that is usually ground into a fine powder by a compounder. Compounding is a process, in which a polymer resin is melted and mixed with additives such as TFMA
