Cross linkable Compound

Everflon+ Cross linked fluoropolymers

Fluoropolymers excel with exceptional dielectricproperties and continuous service temperatures,making them suitable for demanding environmentssuch as wire and cable applications. These solutionscan withstand high-heat, corrosive environments,and extreme cold temperatures, offering reliableperformance in a wide range of conditions.Within the full spectrum of fluoropolymers, ETFE—especially in its radiation crosslinked form (X-ETFE)—offers unique advantages for aerospace applicationsthat demand lightweight materials and reducedthickness without compromising excellent hightemperature resistance. This combination makes X-ETFE a strong choice when both performance andweight savings are essential. Range of Everflon™ crosslinkable formulations, produced with X-ETFE andX-PVDF, deliver superior cut-through resistance andreliable durability in demanding environments.These materials offer enhanced protection againstabrasion and wear for ETFE, combining strength withlongevity. Through a carefully engineered blend ofadditives, high-temperature fluoropolymers suchas ETFE can be cross-linked using electron beamradiation, unlocking improved performance forchallenging applications.Avient’s cross-linkable formulations are availablein both small and large quantities, as off-the-shelfor custom-tailored solutions. They offer multifunctional performance in a single product.

These solutions come ready to use and can beprovided in pre-colored, or custom-colored optionsfor both ETFE and PVDF resins.
