Characteristics, speciality
- easy and fast to install
- extensive product range
- high resistance to chemicals
Application
Primarily designed for connecting tubes and hoses especially with aggresive media or in aggressive environment.
Material
Polyvinylidenefluoride PVDF is especially resistant to corrosives and aliphatic, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons, carboxylic acids, alcohol and mercaptanes hydrocarbons. PVDF is not resistant to alkaline amines, alkalis and alkaline metals.
Resistance to chemicals
For details regarding resistance to chemicals see appendix. This information does not claim to be complete. The absence of information referring to chemicals and temperatures is not to be regarded as a statement of their suitability. This should be tested in each individual case under operational conditions.
