- Polyvinylidene
fluoride, or PVDF is a highly non-reactive and pure
thermoplastic fluoropolymer.
- PVDF is a
specialty plastic material in the fluoropolymer family; it is
used generally in applications requiring the highest purity,
strength, and resistance to solvents, acids, bases and heat and
low smoke generation during a fire event.
- PVDF membranes are
used for western blots for immobilization of proteins, due to
its non-specific affinity for amino acids.
- PVDF may be
synthesized from the gaseous VDF monomer via a free radical (or
controlled radical) polymerization process. This may
be followed by processes such as melt casting, or processing
from a solution (e.g. solution casting, spin coating, and film
casting).
- Copolymers of PVDF
are also used in piezoelectric and electrostrictive
applications.
- One of the most
commonly-used copolymers is P(VDF-trifluoroethylene), usually
available in ratios of about 50:50 wt% and 65:35 wt%.
- PVDF is commonly
used as insulation on some kinds of electrical wires, because of
its combination of flexibility, low weight, low thermal
conductivity, high chemical corrosion resistance, and heat
resistance.
- The piezoelectric
properties of PVDF are used to advantage to manufacture tactile
sensor arrays, inexpensive strain gauges and
lightweight audio transducers.
- In the biomedical
sciences PVDF is used in immunoblotting as an artificial
membrane, usually with 0.22 or 0.45 micrometres pore
sizes, on which proteins are transferred using electricity.
- PVDF is resistant
to solvents and, therefore, these membranes can be easily
stripped and reused to look at other proteins, making it very
convenient.
- PVDF is used for
specialty monofilament fishing lines, sold as fluorocarbon
replacements for nylon monofilament.
- Polyvinylidene
Fluoride (PVDF), the homopolymer of 1,1,- difluoroethene is a
tough engineering thermoplastic that offers a unique balance of
properties like excellent chemical resistance, good mechanical
properties, excellent resistance to abrasion and low friction
co-efficient, high temperature use and excellent thermal
stability, outstanding ageing resistance, UV and gama radiation
stability and
very high dielectric and piezoelectric constant.
- PVDF is widely
used in equipments for chemical, petrochemical,
hydrometallurgical, pharmaceutical, food and nuclear industries
as well as in paper and pulp industries, as components in
electrical and electronic industries, as thin films for building
and automobile industries, as coatings and also as solar energy
panels.
- In processing of
PVDF around 13 processors namely five in the moulding sector,
eight in the wire and cable sector have come up
in the country who are importing the basic resin and processing
with indigenous equipment.
- The market has
picked up for PVDF as entrepreneurs as well as the users are
becoming aware of this product because of its easy
processability and its wide range of applications.
- PVDF has entered
India as finished components like pipes, pipe fittings, valves
etc. for the Chloralkali industries where it is best suited for
nascent Chlorine.
- The Kynar 500®
PVDF resin is made using a new fluorosurfactantfree (FSF)
process.
- Arkema Inc. has
developed a multilayer blown film process using its Kynar PVDF
films to deliver cost-effective films as per market needs.
- Polyvinylidene
fluoride (PVDF) is a ferroelectric polymer with unique
properties suitable for use in a wide range of medical and
biological imaging applications.
- Polyvinylidene
Fluoride exhibits a variety of characteristic mechanical and
electrical properties, such as piezoelectricity and
pyroelectricity PVDF has a very simple chemical formula,
-CH2-CF2-, intermediate between polyethylene (PE) -CH2-CH2- and
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) -CF2-CH2-.
- Polyvinylidene
fluoride exhibits higher piezoelectricity than other polymer
materials such as nylon and polyvinyl chloride.
- PVDF is a superior
material for sensors because its stress constant, the ability to
convert stress into electrical energy, is more than 20 times
higher than that of lead zirconate titanate.
- In medical and
biological imaging above 15MHz, PVDF and its copolymers have
proven extremely useful.
