【 摘 要 】

This work features the properties and the common industrial applications of two thermoplastic polymers which are the Polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) and the Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), the polymerization and the manufacturing processes of their monomers have been emphasized in this work. It is believed that these two materials are having a number of shared properties and applications. Their distinguishing characteristics allow them to be utilized in various applications with immense interest to the industrial world. They excel, converge, and slightly diverge in most of their properties with diverse transition phases as well as piezoelectric and pyroelectric effects. Their eminent properties qualify them to be used in a number of industrial and outdoor applications e.g. insulations, sensing materials, laminations, encapsulations, coatings, membranes, biomaterials, aircraft interiors and photovoltaic applications. In conclusion, this work recommends further in-depth analysis to investigate the correlations between these two polymers and to provide oriented numerical information on their performance.
