Kynar is the Arkema trade name for polyvinylidene fluoride, a fluorocarbon material typically used as insulation for wire-wrap wire. A trade name, also known as a trading name or a business name, is the legal name of a business, or the name which a business trades under for commercial purposes. ... PVDF, or PolyVinylidine DiFluoride, is a highly non-reactive and pure thermoplastic fluoropolymer. ... Fluorocarbons are carbon-fluorine compounds that often contain other elements such as hydrogen, chlorine, or bromine. ... Wire wrap is a technique for constructing small numbers of complex electronics. ...


Kynar insulation is very thin and fragile, and is generally used in electronics work where heat and abrasion are not an issue. Two digital voltmeters The field of electronics is the study and use of electronic devices that operate by controlling the flow of electrons or other electrically charged particles in devices such as thermionic valves and semiconductors. ... A red-hot iron rod cooling after being worked by a blacksmith. ... In dermatology, an abrasion is superficial damage to the skin, generally not deeper than the epidermis. ...


Kynar-insulated wires are usually chemically or thermally stripped. Chemical stripping involves dipping the wire end into a solvent capable of dissolving the polymer. Kynar also decomposes with the heat of a small cigarette lighter or soldering iron, leaving the bare wire exposed. A solvent is a liquid that dissolves a solid, liquid, or gaseous solute, resulting in a solution. ...
