Polyvinylidene Fluoride PVDF resin

PVDF is a fluorinated semi-crystalline thermoplastic which is obtained by polymerizing vinylidene fluoride. Without any additives, it has the intrinsic stability inherent to fluoropolymers even when exposed to harsh environments, providing the user with a unique combination of properties resulting in longer equipment life.

In addition to the PVDF homopolymers, which are recognized worldwide for their excellent performance in a variety of applications, specialty Polymers has developed a wide range of VF2-HFP copolymers, and VF2-CTFE copolymers to respond to specific needs of the market.

· Low coefficient of friction

· Continuous use within a wide range of temperatures

· Unaffecting by UV and good resistance to radiation

· Excellent intrinsic fire resistance

· Available grades approved for food contact applications

· Good capability for thermoforming and very easily joined by welding

Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) resins Processing

PVDF grades can be processed using techniques applicable to standard thermoplastics:

Extrusion Injection, compression and transfer molding Machining

Typical applications include stock shapes (machinable rods and sheets), tubing, molding, piping, tower packing, filters and compounds for many of the following.
