Brand information
Product overview:
Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) resins and copolymers designed for extreme inertness in harsh environments, flame & smoke properties, weather resistance, durability, and ease of processing.
Arkema’s Kynar® PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) and flexible copolymers are world famous for their balance of easy-processing and tremendous resistance and durability. With manufacturing facilities in each of the major regional markets – North America, Europe, and Asia, we continue to invest in order to supply our customers globally while servicing them locally.
Extreme Properties
Kynar® fluoropolymers are specified by end-users across the world for their outstanding combination of properties:
- Outstanding resistance to sunlight/UV exposure
