Overview
PVDF, often referred to by its trade name Kynar®, is a high purity engineering thermoplastic with excellent chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, flame resistance, and UV stability.
PVDF is widely used for chemical tank liners and semiconductor equipment components.
Homopolymer PVDF exhibits higher strength and stiffness and has a higher heat deflection temperature than copolymer PVDF.
Copolymer PVDF is less stiff but has superior impact resistance and stress crack resistance.
