Polyvinylidene fluoride, or polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) is a highly non-reactive and pure thermoplastic fluoropolymer produced by the polymerization of vinylidene difluoride. 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. Co***red to other fluoropolymers, it has an easier melt process because of its relatively low melting point of around 177 °C. KYNAR PVDF Tri pack design further prevents dry spots and compression interlock, two phenomena common to traditional packing media, both of which cause liquid and air channeling and decrease media efficiency. Note: surface area alone does not guarantee performance. Excess surface area can impede gas/liquid contact and create higher pressure drops, thus increasing horsepower requirements and operating expense. Tri-Pack Media tower packing provides the optimum surface-to-open-area ratio for achieving best mass transfer efficiency and lowest operating costs. It is the industry standard for random dump tower packing media. Tri-Pack Media Tower Packing is available in three sizes in a variety of injection-molded resins including polypropylene, PVC, KYNAR®, Halar®, Teflon® and glass-filled polypropylene. |
