| Processing
Algoflon® D 1610 F can be processed undiluted or diluted using distilled or deionized water.
Storage and Handling
Algoflon® PTFE dispersions must be stored under suitable temperature conditions to ensure prolonged stability. Temperatures lower than 5°C must be avoided to prevent irreversible settling. Also, some settling may occur on prolonged standing and/or heat exposure. It is therefore strongly recommended that the product is always kept at temperatures below 35°C. The optimum storage temperature range is 10-25°C. It is also advisable that the product is homogenized by gentle rolling or stirring once per month and prior to use.
Safety and Toxicology
Before using Algoflon® PTFE dispersions consult the product Material Safety Data Sheet and follow all label directions and handling precautions. As with all PTFE materials, handling and processing should only be carried out in well ventilated areas. Venting units should be installed above processing equipment. Fumes must not be inhaled and eye and skin contact ought to be avoided. In case of skin contact wash with soap and water. In case of eye contact flush with water immediately and seek medical help. Do not smoke in areas contaminated with powder, vapor or fumes. See Material Safety Data Sheet for detailed advice on waste disposal methods
