PVDF (poly­vi­nyli­dene fluoride)

Poly­vi­nyli­dene fluo­ride is a highly crystal­line ther­mo­pla­s­tic with good mecha­ni­cal, ther­mal and elec­tri­cal proper­ties. As a fluo­ro­pla­s­tic, PVDF has excel­lent chemi­cal resis­tance without sharing the low mecha­ni­cal values of other fluoroplastics.
