Notes for editors
This new modified PVDF product range opens numerous application possibilities by allowing Kynar® ADX PVDF to adhere to many materials:
- other performance polymers such as polyamide or polyester,
- functionalised polyolefins (allowing the production of Polyethylene / PVDF coextruded structures),
- metals,
- certain types of rubber.
Initial applications are emerging in such diverse fields as transport fuel lines, battery binders, rubber coatings, and metal coatings.
Kynar® ADX resins retain the same excellent melt and solvent processability as standard Kynar® and Kynar Flex® resins. Kynar® ADX features similar thermal, UV and chemical resistance, high mechanical performance and high permeation barrier properties as the other well-known Kynar® resins.
