Polyvinylfluoride - film (polyvinylfluoride - film production)

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product polyvinylfluoride film' is a plastic product of fossil origin it is not biodegradable and it is a thermoplastic material. This product consists of 100% virgin material with no content of recycled material. The product is used in the following applications and sectors: Poly(vinyl fluoride) films are laminated to sheets of metal with special adhesives. The laminates are used for exterior siding on industrial and residential buildings. Pigmented films can be made in any colour. These films made from PVF have exceptional resistance to sunlight chemical attack and water adsorption. They are also extremely tough and have good abrasion resistance. Films can also be laminated to hardboard paper polystyrene polyurethane and other substrates. These laminates are used for wall coverings aircraft cabin interiors pipe covering duct liners as well as other applications. A weather-resistant PVF barrier is also resistant to abrasion chemicals solvents and staining. Another application for PVF film is as a release sheeting in the molding of phenolic epoxide and polyester plastics and as a release film for bag molding. It does not become brittle and strips easily from the mold.Toughness is maintained at elevated temperatures at all degrees of humidity and in contact with common solvents. The film has been used for photovoltaic applications because of its high transparency and resistance to solar radiation. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
