==Polyvinylidene fluoride==
Poly[[vinylidene fluoride]], [[PVDF]], belongs to the [[fluoropolymer]] class of thermoplastics and is known for its high chemical inertness and resistance. PVDF is obtained through the polymerization of the vinylidene fluoride monomer. PVDF thermoplastic is fabricated into sheets and pipes for engineering uses as well as powders and coatings that can be dissolved in solvents and applied across a product surface. PVDF is widely used in the chemical industry as piping for aggressive chemicals and high purity liquids. The PVDF material is used in construction, transportation, chemical processes, electricity, batteries, waste water and treatment.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://pvcpipesupplies.com/media/documents/kynar_specs.pdf|title=PVDF Performance Characteristics & Data|website=Arkema}}</ref>
