Kynar and Kynarflex
Kynar polyvinylidene fluoride is a tough, engineering thermoplastic that offers a unique balance of properties. It has the characteristic stability of fluoropolymers when exposed to harsh thermal, chemical, and ultraviolet environments.
Kynar resins are readily melt-processed by standard methods of extrusion and injection / compression molding.

At elevated temperatures Kynar PVDF can be dissolved in polar solvents such as organic esters and amines. This selective solubility is an advantage in the preparation of corrosion resistant coatings for chemical process equipment and long-life architectural finishes on building panels.

Key Attributes of Kynar PVDF include:

- Mechanical strength and toughness
- High abrasion resistance
- High thermal stability
- High dielectric strength
- High purity
- Readily melt processible
- Resistant to most chemicals and solvents
- Resistant to ultraviolet and nuclear radiation
- Resistant to weathering
- Resistant to fungi
- Low permeability to most gases and liquids
- Low flame and smoke characteristics
- Rigid and Flexible versions of Kynar PVDF are available.
