Solef® 80 000 Series Expanded PVDF is ideally suited for Oil & Gas applications such as pipe, pump or manifold insulation and many other offshore structures.Thanks to the inherent advantages of a high performance fire-retardant, chemically resistant, insulating foam - a complex pipe system, or pump housing for example can be readily and efficiently insulated and simply maintained.With a history of excellent service without failure in some of the most demanding applications, PVDF foam is suitable for many applications in this industry.
