Solef® 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, Solvay Specialty Polymers has developed a wide range of VF2-HFP copolymers, and VF2-CTFE copolymers to respond to specific needs of the market.
Key Features
Chemical inertness to most acids, aliphatic and aromatic organic compounds, chlorinated solvents, alcohols, etc.Very high purityLow coefficient of frictionContinuous use within a wide range of temperaturesUnaffection by UV and good resistance to γ radiationExcellent intrinsic fire resistanceAvailable grades approved for food contact applicationsGood capability for thermoforming and very easily joined by welding
In addition to Solef PVDF resins, Solvay Specialty Polymers offers a wide range of fluoropolymers which are also easily processable by injection, extrusion and all conventional processing techniques.
Solef® PVDF grades can be processed using techniques applicable to standard thermoplastics:
ExtrusionInjection, compression and transfer moldingMachining
Items produced from all non-reinforced grades of Solef® PVDF can be easily assembled using standard welding methods, such as:
Hot air welding with welding rodButt weldingHeat-sealingUltrasonicIR welding
