D5300 High Performance Release Film

D5300 High Performance Release Film (ETFE) – 48" & 60" – Red or Blue

D5300 is a fluoropolymer ETFE release film engineered for critical contour layups and high-quality surface finishes. It allows air and gases to vent through the stack while blocking resin flow, helping prepreg laminates consolidate cleanly without resin bleed-through. Use D5300 (or an equivalent ETFE film) whenever processing prepreg; other film types may not vent properly and can produce poor results.

Key Features

• Material: ETFE fluoropolymer release film with excellent chemical resistance and thermal stability
• Selective Permeability: Vents air/volatiles while preventing resin passage for consistent prepreg cures
• High Strength & Toughness: 7,000 psi tensile strength; high tear resistance for reliable handling
• Thermal Capability: 450°F (232°C) maximum use; 480°F (240°C) melt point
• Thin & Conformable: 0.001" thickness drapes over complex contours
• Options: 48" and 60" widths; Red or Blue colors for easy identification

Typical Applications

• Prepreg laminates in aerospace, marine, automotive, and industrial composites
• Complex molds or parts where venting without resin transfer is required
• Layups needing a clean, easy release and high cosmetic finish

Processing Guidelines

• Place D5300 against the laminate/release side; back with breather/bleeder as required.
• Ensure edges are managed to prevent resin egress; do not substitute non-ETFE films for prepreg.
• Stay within the 450°F (232°C) max use temperature; follow your prepreg cure schedule.

Ordering

• Widths: 48" (121.9 cm) and 60" (152.4 cm)
