Arkema will implement a price increase for its Kynar® PVDF Fluoropolymers products. Effective May 1st, 2010, or as soon as contracts allow, prices will globally increase by 8.5%.

This is linked to the evolution of regulation as well as raw materials and energy cost increases.

With its outstanding resistance to chemicals, UV radiation, and high temperatures, Kynar® fluoropolymers products are widely used in the chemical processing industry, high performance coatings, offshore production and in newer applications such as Li-ion batteries and photovoltaIc solar panels.
