PVDF has excellent chemical and physical properties, even at low temperatures, and has considerable resistance to abrasion. It is resistant to most of the inorganic acids and bases, and to aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, organic acids, alcohols, and halogenated solvents. It is also non-toxic and can be used for high purity applications.
Safe working temperatures range from -40ºC to +120ºC, with short term use possible at temperatures well above this level.
