Polyvinylidene Fluoride

A resin with a melting point of 171°C that gives it a high temperature rating. Its symbol is PVDF. It is resistant to attack or penetration by most corrosive chemicals and organic solvents, including inorganic acids, oxidants, alkalis, halogens and hydrocarbons. It is a very hard material with high tensile strength that results in insulations having excellent cut-through resistance and good abrasion resistance.
