Tedlar® (PVF) Film
Tedlar® polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) products are a part of the DuPont fluoropolymer family. DuPont Tedlar® PVF products offer a unique balance of aesthetics while offering the durability of a fluoropolymer. Originally produced in the '60s as a transparent film, the Tedlar® PVF product line is continually expanding and currently consists of a PVF resin and over 150 oriented and cast films servicing a wide variety of applications and markets.
DuPont is currently limiting sales of this item to Aircraft or Solar Panel use only.
200 Pound Minimum Order & possible 4-6 week lead-time

The unique mechanical, electrical and chemical properites make Tedlar an ideal material for many types of surface protection. Tedlar also has very good non-stick properties and is widely used as release film in the manufacture of printed circuit boards. Tedlar retains its strength and flexibility within the temperature range from -70ºC up to +110ºC. It has an elongation of over 100% and good wear properties. In the sign industry, Tedlar is used as surface protection because of the weather resistance, UV-resistance and easy-to-clean properties.
Tedlar® polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) products can be found in numerous applications as a release film or as surface protection. Tedlar® film is widely used as a protective laminate for FRP panels used in the production of trucks and trailers. You can find Tedlar® release film being used as a media for transfer printing or as a release film for printed circuit boards and various composite laminations. Tedlar® can be heat-sealed and is used to encapsulate ceiling tiles, fiberglass insulation, or used to produce gas-sampling bags. Slit into narrow strips, Tedlar® is used for tapes, motor winding, wrapping bridge cables, or underground cables.
Tedlar® PVF films are tough, durable, preformed polyvinyl fluoride films that are manufactured in continuous rolls. The unique weathering, mechanical, electrical, chemical, and stain-resistant properties of Tedlar® make it an ideal protective surfacing material for many applications as well as an ideal release film. Tedlar® PVF films can be oriented or nonoriented as in the Tedlar® Special Properties (SP) film line. Film thickness can range from 12.5 microns (0.5 mil) to 50 microns (2 mil) and can be treated for adherability or left untreated for release applications.
Oriented Tedlar® films are available today in more than 150 standard variations of opaque pigmented, translucent, and transparent films and can range from a high tensile strength, high flex variety (Type 1) to a high elongation, high tear resistance (Type 5).
Nonoriented Tedlar® SP films (Types 8 and 9) offer excellent conformability to almost any shape or substrate while maintaining the superb durability, chemical resistance, and ease of cleaning expected of Tedlar® PVF film. Nonoriented films offer gloss options and small-lot capability for custom colors and are available as multilayer films without needing adhesives or heat sealing. Multilayer technology allows for unique effects such as pearlescent or metallic colors. The Tedlar® SP process allows a pigmented base layer to be covered with an integral clear top layer.
Due to material shortages, DuPont is only accepting new orders for a release film used in the manufacturing of composites or laminates for aircraft. We need to provide the name of the customer & the make and model of the aircraft it is being used for.
