The miracles of science™

Select Industry


DuPont™ Fluoroguard® Polymer Additives are the products of choice where low wear and abrasion, squeak/noise reduction, lubricity, improved melt flow and metal release properties of polymer compounds are primary requirements. Common applications include polymer gears/bushings, rubber o-rings/seals, polymer films, snowboards, shoe soles/cleats, automotive weather stripping, and processing aids.

The following four grades are available:

  • Fluoroguard® PCA is used for improving product performance, while processing benefits are additional advantages.
  • Fluoroguard® SG is an ultrapure oil (meets USP Plastics Class VI requirements, NAMSA tested, and is H-1 food grade approved) for use in polymer devices and tubing.
  • Fluoroguard® PRO is based on low molecular weight oils and primarily intended to be used as process-aids.
  • Fluoroguard® FMS has fluorosurfactant on one end of the molecule to improve performance in some thermosets.
