  2. Polymer blend - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_blend

    In materials science, a polymer blend, or polymer mixture, is a member of a class of materials analogous to metal alloys, in which at least two polymers are blended together to create a new material with different physical properties. [1]

  3. Polyvinyl fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinyl_fluoride

    Polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) or –(CH 2 CHF) n – is a polymer material mainly used in the flammability-lowering coatings of airplane interiors and photovoltaic module backsheets. [2] It is also used in raincoats and metal sheeting.

    A blend is a mixture of two or more fibers.In yarn spinning, different compositions, lengths, diameters, or colors may be combined to create a blend. [1] Blended textiles are fabrics or yarns produced with a combination of two or more types of different fibers, or yarns to obtain desired traits and aesthetics.

Polyurethane (/ ˌ p ɒ l i ˈ jʊər ə ˌ θ eɪ n,-j ʊəˈr ɛ θ eɪ n /; [1] often abbreviated PUR and PU) refers to a class of polymers composed of organic units joined by carbamate (urethane) links.

  6. Polyvinylidene fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinylidene_fluoride

    In order to obtain a piezoelectric response, the material must first be poled in a large electric field. Poling of the material typically requires an external field of above 30 megavolts per metre (MV/m). Thick films (typically >100 μm) must be heated during the poling process in order to achieve a large piezoelectric response. Thick films are ...

  7. Thermoplastic olefin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThermoPlastic_Olefin

    This type of material is non-rigid, and is sometimes called TPR for ThermoPlastic Rubber. To increase the rigidity of a TPO blend, fillers exploit a surface tension phenomena. By selecting a filler with a higher surface area per weight, a higher flexural modulus can be achieved.
