Poly Vinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) is a hard plastic with excellent chemical properties. It carries a common trade name as Kynar. Tanks made from PVDF material can withstand temperatures of up to 300 degrees F. Kynar is an excellent tank material for use in processes containing Chromic Acid, such as chromium plating. Many chrome plating processes are manually operated where a part may impact the tank when moving parts in and out. In this case, a plastic lined steel tank is best suited for the process.
