PVDF 1000 is a semicrystalline thermoplastic polymer known for its exceptional chemical resistance. Compared to PTFE and other fluoropolymers, PVDF offers superior mechanical properties and does not deform under load. It has high purity, is non-toxic, and meets food safety regulations. Additionally, it can be welded using various techniques.
Applications include:
Mechanical: Suitable for bearings, even in water.
Food Industry: Compatible with food contact applications.
Electrical: Excellent dielectric properties and weather stability.
Chemical: Used in petrochemical, chemical, and electrical industries.
“PVDF 1000 has the following properties:
– High chemical resistance typical of fluorinated materials
– Compared to PTFE it has higher mechanical strengths, such as tensile and compressive strength.
– Excellent resistance to both low and high temperatures, up to 150° C.
– Good dimensional stability
– Low flammability
– Low friction coefficient
– Excellent resistance to ageing, atmospheric agents, UV rays and radiation.
– Good wear resistance
On the other hand, compared to PTFE the resistance to high temperatures is lower.”
