Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a fluorocarbon-based thermoplastic polymer primarily used for its outstanding chemical and thermal stability properties. PVDF finds wide usage in lithium-ion batteries, membranes, pipes, films, coatings and wires due to its corrosion resistance, good mechanical strength, weather resistance and non-flammability. It provides an excellent barrier to moisture, chemicals, solvents and has good electrical insulation ratings. PVDF membranes are used for microfiltration and ultrafiltration processes in water treatment plants and pharmaceutical industries. PVDF coated wires and cables are preferred for applications requiring high dielectric strengths. Films made from PVDF are finding increased usage as backsheets in photovoltaic modules owing to their durability and weather resistance properties.

The Global Polyvinylidene Fluoride Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 1541.69 Mn in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.0% over the forecast period 2024 to 2031.
