3M™ Dynamar™ RA 5300 High Performance Rubber Additive is designed for use at low loadings to improve the processing in extrusion and molding operations. It utilizes unique chemistry which makes it particularly effective as a processing aid in fluoroelastomer compounds. Loadings between 0.5 and 1 PHR (parts per hundred rubber) can achieve excellent performance with minimal effect on rheological and physical properties of the overall compound. As a rubber processing additive, Dynamar RA 5300 can help improve the surface finish of FKM extrusions, deliver a higher yield and improve downstream processing. RA 5300 may also aid molding processes with improved flow, release, and tool fouling, especially at higher molding temperatures (approximately 400°F)Features and Benefits:- High performance rubber additive for fluoroelastomer compounds
- Provides improved smoothness for FKM extrusions and improved mold release and less mold fouling for molders of FKM compounds compared to typical processing aids
- Delivers exceptional processing performance with limited property loss
- Excellent thermal stability
- Ideal for many FKM tube, profile, and pre-form extrusions, as well as injection and transfer molding processes
