Polyvinylidene fluoride Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is one of the most rigid and abrasion resistant of the melt-processible fluoropolymers. It has good chemical resistance, though hot sulfuric acid and hot amines can attack it. Like most fluoropolymers, PVDF is inherently flame retardant. It retains useful mechanical properties until 300 degrees F (149 degrees C).

Chemical Properties

Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) is made by the polymerization of vinylidene fluoride in aqueous medium under pressure but details of the process have not been disclosed. Two grades of polymer are available with differing average molecular weight, namely 300000 and 600000. Poly(vinylidene fluoride) has good tensile and impact strengths. The polymer has unusual piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties which have resulted in its use in solid state switching devices.
The resistance of poly(vinylidene fluoride) to solvents and chemicals is generally good but inferior to that of polytetrafluoroethylene and polychlorotrifluoroethylene. Some highly polar solvents such as dimethylacetamide dissolve the polymer at elevated temperature whilst organic amines cause discoloration and embrittlement. Fuming sulphuric acid leads to suiphonation. Poly(vinylidene fluoride) has good heat resistance and may be used continuously at temperatures up to 150°C. The polymer may be melt processed by the standard techniques of injection moulding and extrusion. The polymer has very good weather resistance. Applications for poly(vinylidene fluoride) include moulded and lined tanks, valves, pumps and other equipment designed to handle corrosive fluids. The polymer is also used in coatings and wire covering.

Uses

Poly(vinylidene fluoride) is resistant to most acids and alkalies but it is attacked by fuming sulfuric acid. It is soluble in dimethylacetamide but is insoluble in less polar solvents. Copolymers have been produced with ethylene, tetrafluoroethylene, chlorotrifluoroethylene and hexafluoroethylene. The latter is an elastomer called Viton or Fluorel.
The homopolymer is used as a chemical resistant coating for steel, for tank linings, hose, and pump impellors. The elastomeric copolymer with hexafluoroethylene when cured with hexamethylenediamine is used as a seal, gasket, 0-ring, tubing, coating and lining.

Uses

Poly(vinylidene fluoride) is useful in coatings, film, filter cloth, instrument linings, filtration membranes, pump parts, linings and valves. It is also employed as a material for transducers in devices such as headphones, microphones and sonic detectors. It is also essential for piezoelectric and electrostrictive applications. In addition, it is useful for monofilament fishing lines replacing nylon monofilament. It acts as a standard binder used in the production of composite electrodes for lithium ion batteries. It serves as a high grade insulator for wires, nanomaterials and pressure sensors. It is utilized to make filters which are used to prepare samples for high performance liquid chromatography and other advanced analytical techniques.

Uses

Coatings, film, filter cloth, instrument linings, filtration membranes, pump parts and linings and valves.

Definition

ChEBI: A polymer composed of repeating 1,1-difluoroethyl units.

Production Methods

This product is made by the free-radical chain polymerization of vinylidene fluoride (H2C=F2). This odorless gas which has a boiling point of ?82 °C is produced by the thermal dehydrochlorination of 1,1,1-chlorodifluoroethane or by the dechlorination of 1,2-dichloro-1,1-difluoro-ethane.

Production Methods

PVDF, the addition polymer of 1,1,difluoroethene, is prepared by high-pressure free-radical polymerization in aqueous systems. It has applications in electric and electronic devices, as weather-resistant binders for exterior architectural finishes, and in a number of areas of the chemicalprocessing industry. The lack of additives and thus the exceedingly low contamination levels make the polymer useful in ultrapure water systems, for example, where high purity is necessary for construction materials.

General Description

Poly(vinylidene fluoride) PVDF is a semi crystalline non-centrosymmetric polymer which exhibits piezo-, pyro- and ferroelectric properties. It is a linear polymer that shows permanent electric dipoles perpendicular to the direction of the molecular chain. These dipoles result from the difference in electronegativity between the atoms of hydrogen and fluorine with respect to carbon. Depending on the processing conditions, PVDF exhibits several different crystalline phases (α,β,γ,δ). The β phase of PVDF is the phase that exhibits the best ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties.

Industrial uses

The fluorohydrocarbons are of two kinds: polyvinylidenefluoride (PVF2) and polyvinyl fluoride(PVF). Although similar to the other fluoroplastics,they have somewhat lower heatresistance and considerably higher tensile andcompressive strength.
PVF2, the toughest of the fluoroplastic resins,is available as pellets for extrusion andmolding and as powders and dispersions forcorrosion-resistant coatings. This high-molecular-weight homopolymer has excellent resistanceto stress fatigue, abrasion, and to coldflow. Although insulating properties and chemicalinertness of PVDF are not as good as thoseof the fully fluorinated polymers, PTFE andFEP, the balance of properties available inPVDF qualifies this resin for many engineeringapplications. It can be used over the temperaturerange from –73 to 149°C and has excellentresistance to abrasion.

Industrial uses

The properties are generally similar to those ofthe other fluorinated resins: relative inertness,low dielectric constant, and thermal stability(up to about 150°C). The resins (PVF2 resins)are, however, stronger and less susceptible tocreep and abrasion than TFE and CTFE resins.
Applications of polyvinylidene fluoride aremainly as electrical insulation, piping, processequipment, and as a protective coating in theform of a liquid dispersion.

Industrial uses

PVDF can be used with halogens, acids, bases, and strong oxidizing agents, but it is not recommended for use in contact with ketones, esters, amines, and some organic acids.
Although electrical properties of PVDF are not as good as those of other fluoroplastics, it is widely used to insulate wire and cable in computer and other electrical and electronic equipment. Heat-shrinkable tubing of PVDF is used as a protective cover on resistors and diodes, as an encapsulant over soldered joints.
Valves, piping, and other solid and lined components are typical applications of PVDF in chemical-processing equipment. It is the only fluoroplastic available in rigid pipe form.
Woven cloth made from PVDF monofilament is used for chemical filtration applications. A significant application area for PVDF materials is as a protective coating for metal panels used in outdoor service.
A recently developed capability of PVDF film is based on the unique piezoelectric characteristics of the film in its so-called beta phase.
When compressed or stretched, polarized PVDF generates a voltage from one metallized surface to the other, proportional to the induced strain.
