Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Market Segmentation, Application, Technology & Analysis 2023
Polyvinylidene Fluoride, also known as Polyvinylidene Difluoride or PVDF is a highly non-reactive Thermoplastic Fluoropolymer, which is synthesized by the polymerization of Vinylidene Difluoride. PVDF is a specialty plastic used in various applications, wherein the high purity, inertness to solvents, acids and bases are the desired properties. In the market PVDF is available in the form of fine powder grade, which is an essential ingredient in high-end paints for metals and cements. Such PVDF paints have extremely good gloss and color retention. PVDF has successfully penetrated into vast number of industries such as chemicals, electronics, new energy, construction, and pharmaceuticals, among others. A number of applications in which PVDF is significantly used such as piping & tubing, sheets & films, membrane, cable, and an insulator for premium wire. Compared to other Fluoropolymers, such as Polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon), PVDF has a low density and light weight, which makes it useful in construction and automotive sector. PVDF can be injected, molded or welded to manufacture the polymeric sheets and film, which is commonly used in electronics, medical and defense industries, as well as in lithium-ion batteries. It is also available as a cross-linked, closed-cell foam, which is primarily used in aviation and aerospace applications.
