Description

Kynar® resins are fluorinated thermoplastic homopolymers.

Outstanding characteristics: chemical resistance, imperviousness to UV, high barrier properties, high purity, excellent mechanical and thermo-mechanical properties.

Kynar® UHM 6020-20 resin is a specific grade of granules for injection, extrusion, compression and transfer molding.

This grade has specific improved mechanical properties where extreme conditions in temperature and pressure are needed.

This material data has been provided by Arkema Technical Polymers.

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
