DESCRIPTION:<p>Despite the versatility of fluoropolymers in demanding\, hig
 h-performance applications under harsh environments\, many of them have be
 en classified as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and are facing
  increasing regulatory scrutiny. However\, polyvinyl fluoride (PVF) is out
 side all current regulatory definitions of PFAS due to the lack of full fl
 uorination and the presence of hydrogen on each carbon in the backbone of 
 the polymer. This positions PVF as a sustainable alternative to traditiona
 l fluoropolymers while retaining outstanding weatherability\, durability a
 nd chemical resistance. In this talk\, DuPont will review composite applic
 ations currently commonly utilizing PFAS materials and the status of PVF a
 s a non-PFAS fluoropolymer within the regulatory landscape. DuPont will hi
 ghlight PVF's exceptional surface protection and barrier properties\, its 
 compatibility with multiple composite manufacturing processes and its mult
 ifunctional use as a release film.</p>\n\n<h3>Agenda</h3>\n\n<ul>\n	<li>Re
 view of current PFAS regulations and in-scope materials</li>\n	<li>Use cas
 es for PFAS materials (films and coatings) in composite applications</li>\
 n	<li>Non-PFAS options: range from non-fluorinated lower-performance mater
 ials to non-PFAS polyvinyl fluoride</li>\n	<li>Overview: what PVF is\, why
  it is non-PFAS and what its attributes are</li>\n	<li>Real-world case stu
 dies</li>\n</ul>\n
