3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroelastomer BRE 7231

Generic Family: Fluoroelastomer • Supplied by: 3M Advanced Materials Division
3M™ Dyneon™ Fluoroelastomer BRE 7231 is a Base Resistant Fluoroelastomer containing 60% fluorine. It is a bisphenol cured terpolymer and is categorized as a type 4 FKM per ASTM D1418. This product offers improved resistance to high amine containing oils and lubes, coolants and transmission fluids as compared to Type 1 and Type 2 FKM's. Possible applications for BRE 7231 are engine, transmission, transfer case or differential shaft seals or as a rubber coating for cylinder head gaskets, where multifluid resistance to engine oils and coolants is required.

Features and Benefits
  • Composition: Terpolymer of tetrafluoroethylene propylene and vinylidene fluoride
  • Improved resistance to many new types of amine containing automotive fluids and other basic chemicals
  • Improved low temperature sealing performance
  • Possible applications: bonded shaft seals and other molded goods
  • Excellent processability and metal adhesion
  • Possible processes: injection, transfer and compression molding
  • Proprietary incorporated cure technology
