Poor
Not recommended - significant degradation expected
Why is PVDF rated this way to Dmf?
PVDF is not recommended for use with Dmf. Significant degradation or failure is expected.
⚠️ When NOT to use PVDF
Avoid using Polyvinylidene Fluoride with strong bases (NaOH >10%), ketones, esters, and amines. Service temperature up to 150°C.
