Symalit ® 1000 PVDF<br />

Properties of Symalit ® 1000 PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride)<br />

Material density:<br />

1.79 g/cm 3<br />

Service temperature:<br />

–30 to +150/160 °C (20.000 hours/temporary)<br />

Temporary = only a few hours, where no or only low loads may<br />

occur<br />

This fluoropolymer has excellent mechanical properties, paired<br />

with outstanding chemical resistance. Chemically speaking,<br />

Symalit ® 1000 PVDF falls between PE HD and PTFE: it is easy<br />

to machine like PE HD, but with its high chemical resistance at<br />

increased temperatures is more like PTFE.<br />

Main properties of Symalit ® 1000 PVDF:<br />

• High upper continuous service temperature limit in air 150 °C<br />

• Good mechanical strength, rigidity and creep strength over<br />

a wide temperature range<br />

• Excellent chemical and hydrolysis resistance<br />

• Good sliding properties and wear resistance<br />

• Outstanding UV and weather resistance<br />

• Good electrical insulating properties<br />

• Physiologically safe<br />

(suitable for contact with foodstuffs)<br />

• Inherent non-flammability<br />

Technical information:<br />

In Chapter 14 "Technical Knowledge" starting<br />

on page 93 we inform you in detail.<br />

Comment:<br />

Symalit ® 1000 PVDF is a thermoplastic structural material with the<br />

properties that are typical of thermoplastics, such as the ability to<br />

be extruded, welded and hot formed.<br />

Grade:<br />

Symalit ® 1000 PVDF colour natural (white)<br />

This is a fluoropolymer that combines good mechanical, thermal<br />

and electrical properties with excellent chemical resistance. The<br />

raw material also complies with the guidelines of the European<br />

Union and the regulations of the American FDA as regards<br />

compatibility with foodstuffs.<br />

Application: Symalit ® 1000 PVDF<br />

A versatile structural material that is used primarily in the<br />

petrochemical, chemical, metallurgical, pharmaceutical, food,<br />

paper, textile and nuclear industries.<br />

Processing:<br />

Can be machined, hot formed and welded – see machining<br />

information<br />
