KF polymer

Trust and achievements

<Kureha KF Polymer> is a polyvinylidene fluoride resin (PVDF) that Kureha first started industrial production in Japan in 1970. A well-balanced engineering plastic with excellent properties as a fluororesin and molding processability comparable to that of general-purpose resins. It has been used.
Applications are expanding to advanced technology fields such as binders for electrodes of lithium-ion batteries and water treatment membranes.

Features

• Compared to other fluororesins, it has excellent secondary processability such as molding (injection molding, extrusion molding), powder coating, and welding.
• Since there is no need for additives such as plasticizers and thermal stability during processing, it is a highly pure resin with extremely little elution of TOC components, metal components, and metal ions compared to other general-purpose resins.
• Since it has excellent chemical resistance, it is also suitable for piping materials such as chemical plants.
• It has excellent heat resistance and weather resistance, so it is suitable for various outdoor cover films, etc.
• It has high mechanical strength and excellent wear resistance and impact resistance.
• Has electrochemical stability over a wide potential range
