Ensinger ENSIKEM® PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) - Extruded Products  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Fluoropolymer; Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF); Polyvinylidinefluoride (PVDF), Molded/Extruded

Material Notes: Polyvinylidene fluoride, or PVDF, is a fluorinated thermoplastic resin that has outstanding resistance to most mineral and organic acids, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, halogenated solvents, and oxidizing environments. It also has outstanding aging resistance, with its properties remaining constant after many years of continuous use.

Uses: ENSIKEM's excellent chemical and physical properties and the ease with which it can be processed make it especially suitable for components in the chemical, petrochemical, hydrometallurgical, pharmaceutical, food, nuclear, and paper and pulp industries, as well as the semiconductor processing industry.

Ensikem grades have been replaced by Tecaflon. Information Provided by Ensinger Inc.

Vendors: Ensinger High Performance Plastics withstand severe environments, resist harsh chemicals, and perform well in extreme temperatures. They offer weight savings that have potential to drive lower cost systems.
