Kynar ® coating
As the global leader in the production of PVDF, Arkema has worked for more than 50 years in the development of Kynar® PVDF resins for advanced applications such as renewable energies (batteries and photovoltaic), reducing weight in the automotive industry and in coatings with special resistance to weathering.
New developments, such as Kynar 500® FSF® resin and coatings formulated with Kynar Aquatec®, with high resistance to outdoor weather conditions in architectural coatings prove the durability of Kynar® PVDF resins. Arkema continues to allocate resources to its Research & Development efforts for the growth of sustainable technologies in new PVDF applications.
Properties and benefits of Kynar® coating
