High Performance Rod & Sheet

摘要

GEHR Plastics offers polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) sheet and rod, which is ideal for applications including pumps, retation disks, valves, fittings, glide tracks, cogwheels and chemical processing. PVDF shows a higher tensile strength, pressure resistance and dimensional stability than the related PTFE, but friction and insulation properties are lower. PVDF has a high mechanical strength and toughness at lower temperature and is self-extinguishing. The temperature ranges from-22 °F to +300°F.Characteristics are high tensile strength; FDA compliance; high mechanical strength; excellent radiation resistance; high chemical resistance; excellent barrier properties and low water absorption. It is the material of choice for high purity; good friction and wear and tear values fluid handling and high UV-resistance. It produces toxic fumes when burned and cannot be solvent cemented.
