PVDF LINED TANKS
Hi, I am looking for information on PVDF lined mild steel tanks, mainly for topics on surface preparation, fusion techniques and testing.

Vincent,
Why don't you try the suppliers of PVDF first of all ....let's face it, THEY are interested in selling their product.
Personally, I'm biased. I'd like to use a dual laminate PVDF rather than line steel due to the differences in thermal expansion.
But why not PVC? It costs far less and is easier to fabricate and it's alkali resistance is better .... but PVDF excels temperature-wise.
