In which cases is PVDF systems used?
It happens that the Customer has a question why it is necessary to use Polyvinyldenfluoride (PVDF) pipes? After all, there are other plastic pipes and components that are cheaper and easier to install?
Answer: PVDF – a very pure polymer, does not contain, unlike other plastics, residues of the catalytic system, thermal and UV stabilizers, lubricants, plasticizers, flame retardants.
PVDF has a unique combination of chemical, mechanical and technological properties to meet the growing and more stringent requirements for different industries.
PVDF pipes are suitable for use with acids, gases, ultrapure water, organic, as well as in systems with vacuum or high pressure. PVDF piping systems are resistant to cold (up to -20 ° C), have high resistance to
mechanical effects, UV radiation, organically neutral (contact with food is allowed).
Advantages of using PVDF among other polymers:
- wide range of working temperatures;
- high thermal stability;
- very good chemical resistance, including at elevated temperatures;
- good resistance to ultraviolet and gamma radiation;
- purity of material and absence of technological additives;
- already good surface quality;
- low coefficient of friction;
- excellent resistance to abrasive wear;
- good physical and mechanical properties;
- Fire Security;
- physiological inertia;
- manufacturability and ease of processing, including from the melt;
- use in chemistry: this material has characteristic of fluoropolymers
properties; - very good antifriction properties;
- excellent electrical insulating properties;
- flammable material;
- physiologically non-toxic;
easy to handle.
If you need to meet the above conditions, our experts will calculate, select the necessary equipment and the installation team of LLC “UTEX418” will install a system of PVDF of any complexity at the highest quality level.
