Kynar is special material that is made from polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). It is a pure and highly non-reactive thermoplastic fluoropolymer. It is used for many different purposes, primarily service applications in wire installation, jacketing, and chemical handling. It has amazing cut-through properties and abrasion resistance, which is combined with high dielectric strength. This dense, high-purity plastic is incredibly resistant to the vast majority of industrial chemicals, fuels, and solvents.

Some of the more notable features of Kynar are: resistance to high temperatures (up to 300° F), amazing resistance to abrasion, non-burning, good mechanical strength, excellent resistance to chemicals, transparency, impressive dielectric strength, semi-rigid, and has outstanding UV resistance. Due to its remarkable properties, this special plastic is utilized in the manufacturing of many products.

Furthermore, Kynar resin has also be used to create other fire-resistant fluoropolymer sheet materials, such as Symalit polyvinylidene fluoride. It is one of the materials that is often used in the building of semiconductor equipment, where protecting against production interruption and property damage is vital. It meets Factory Mutual (FM) 4910 Fire Safe Protocol, and offers noteworthy reduction in the risk of fire, and practically eliminates expensive suppression systems.

In addition, Symalit PVDF 1000 was the first thermoplastic product to meet the strict ASTM E-84 test for non-combustibility, and it is recognized as versatile engineering material, particularly ideal for the manufacture of components for industries, such as nuclear, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, metallurgical, paper, food, and textile.
