PVF vs. CR Rubber
PVF belongs to the thermoplastics classification, while CR rubber belongs to the thermoset elastomers (rubber). There are 12 material properties with values for both materials. Properties with values for just one material (7, in this case) are not shown.
For each property being compared, the top bar is PVF and the bottom bar is CR rubber.
