Manufactured from Kynar® polyvinylidene fluoride resin. This material offers excellent corrosion and chemical resistance at both ambient and elevated temperatures. PVDF is also inherently UV stable, mechanically tough, abrasion and flame resistant. Kynar 1000 is a whiter grade of PVDF than 740.

The following physical property information is based on typical values of the base resin polyvinylidene fluoride resin.
