description Product Description
Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) is a high-performance fluoropolymer valued for its exceptional chemical resistance, thermal stability, mechanical durability, piezoelectric properties, and biocompatibility. It is widely used in the production of advanced membranes for filtration processes, including water treatment and gas separation. In the electronics industry, PVDF serves as an insulating material for wires and cables, and as a binder or separator in lithium-ion batteries due to its high dielectric strength and non-conductivity. Its strong piezoelectric characteristics make it essential for manufacturing sensors and actuators. Additionally, it is employed in protective coatings resistant to corrosion, abrasion, and UV radiation. In medical applications, its biocompatibility supports drug delivery systems and medical tubing. PVDF also finds use in food and pharmaceutical packaging, providing excellent barrier properties against gases and moisture to extend product shelf life.
