PVDF Polyvinyl fluoride

PVDF is a high-crystal polymer, which unites the
good mechanical properties with superb chemical
resistance. Together with PTFE it belongs to a
group of ductile and elastic, fluorine
thermoplastic materials.
There are two types of PVDF:

o white - with chemical resistance and good

trybological properties and high
mechanical capacity,
o black - with 8% carbon filament addition
for better thermal dimensional stability and abrasion resistance or
conductible soot. It can be used in petrochemical, chemical, food, paper and
textile industries as well as nuclear technology.

Properties:

o high mechanical endurance,

o durability and creep resistance (better then other fluoropolymers),
o high load resistance also in low temperature,
o superb chemical resistance,
o high admissible working temperature (150°C),
o good sliding properties and abrasion resistance,
o physiologically harmless (admitted to direct contact with food),
o very good dimensional stability,
o low flammability,
o exceptional resistance to UV radiation as well as atmospheric factors,
o good machinability,
o compression strength.

Durability
PVDF possesses abrasion resistance and rigidity, making it an ideal material for
designing and constructing machines and vehicles. It finds application in
transporting engineering, laser technology, emission control installations, water
supply systems, electronic and filters technology.

Endurance
PVDF is characterized by chemical
endurance. There is no danger of stress
corrosion while using it. It is resistant
to hydrolysis, sterilization and high
temperatures up to 150oC. Thanks to
this, it turns out to be useful in direct
contact with food and chemical
apparatuses, insulators and connectors.

UV radiation resistance
PVDF is characterized by a very good resistance to UV radiation and influence of
water conditions. It can be used both in closed rooms and outside.

Dimensional stability
PVDF almost does not absorb moisture. As the result, elements made of it remain
the same for the whole operating life. This material is recommended for pump
casings, filter plates, valve housings, reservoir lining, seals, tightenings, rotors,
rollers, stirring and pressing elements.

Contact with food

PVDF is admitted to direct contact with food
(it is physiologically harmless).
