Explore PVDF Extruded Rods & Plates: Features, Benefits, and Applications
PVDF, known by trademarks like Kynar®, Solef®, and Symalit®, stands as one of the most stable and chemically resistant commercial plastics. This versatile fluoropolymer finds application in various industries, including piping, tubing, vessel fabrication, valves and fittings, tower packing, and more for handling corrosive fluids. Its outstanding chemical resistance makes it perfect for applications involving high-purity water, acids, chlorine, halogenated solvents, and petrochemical mixtures. PVDF’s inherent flame retardancy and flexibility also make it suitable for uses like fiber optic cable jacketing, fiber optic raceways, and copper cables in plenum areas. Additionally, PVDF is FDA-compliant, non-toxic, and suitable for contact with food products due to its purity. Its smooth surface inhibits microorganism growth.
