PRODUCT INFORMATIONDuPont™ Krytox® GPL 100–107 oils are clear, colorless, 
fluorinated synthetic oils that are nonreactive, nonflammable, 
safe in chemical and oxygen service, and are long-lasting. 
DuPont™ Krytox® is a perfluoropolyether (PFPE)—also called 
perfluoroalkylether (PFAE) or perfluoropolyalkylether (PFPAE)—
with the following chemical structure:
F- (CF-CF2
-O)n-CF2
CF3
 | where n = 10–60
 CF3
The polymer chain is completely saturated and contains only 
carbon, oxygen, and fluorine. On a weight basis, a typical Krytox®
oil contains 21.6% carbon, 9.4% oxygen, and 69.0% fluorine. 
All standard grades of grease are thickened with 
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), whose formula is (CF2
-CF2
)
n
. 
This special high efficiency thickener has a melting point of 
325 °C (617 °F) and has low molecular weight and sub-micron 
(0.2 m) particle size for higher performance in bearings. 
Krytox® GPL 200–207 greases are white buttery greases with 
all of the same properties as the Krytox® GPL 100–107 oils that 
they are made from, but they are in grease form.
Krytox® GPL 210–217 EP greases are black greases that contain 
molybdenum disulfide added as an extreme pressure additive for 
highly loaded gears and bearings.
Krytox® GPL 220–227 anticorrosion greases are white 
greases that contain sodium nitrite. These grades provide rust 
protection at ambient temperatures, corrosion protection at high 
temperatures, and antiwear protection.
The grease additives may alter the chemical resistance of 
the grease.
The standard grease consistency is NLGI grade 2 penetration 
(265–295). Softer or harder NLGI penetration grades can be 
made by special order.
Special nonmelting XHT grades are available for applications that 
are higher than the 325 °C (617 °F) melting point of the standard 
PTFE thickener
