Resin for use in potentially explosive atmospheres

04-Mar-10

Arkema’s Kynar Flex covers a range of PVDF-based fluoropolymers with greater flexibility than traditional PVDF. Although similar to Kynar resins in terms of purity and chemical stability, they feature exclusive qualities of additional chemical compatibility with high pH solutions, as well as superior impact resistance at ambient and low temperatures. The company has recently developed new conductive and antistatic grade: Kynar 340. With its outstanding conductivity, Kynar 340 fulfils every criterion laid down by ATEX regulations regarding equipment used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
