As the most reactive element on earth, fluorine has the power to intensify reactions.
For this reason it is used extensively in both industry and pharmacology.

It was one of the “fens” in original Phen-fen that resulted in deaths, as well as being the killer in other drugs such as the recalled Baycol.
Fluoride is also the element that merits black box warnings on fluoroquinolone antibiotics.
The side effects of fluoridated drugs align with fluoride poisoning:

POWER OF THE FLUORINE ELEMENT
DuPont™ Tedlar® PVF protective films are designed to resist abrasion, scuffs and stains to preserve the desired aesthetics of your graphics and labels for many years.
Tedlar® films also offer long-lived gloss retention and an easy-to-clean surface so graffiti and other unwanted stains can easily be removed from your graphics.
Preserves image color and brilliance
Tedlar® absorbs UV rays to preserve the substrate image’s color and brilliance. Also, even in the hottest, most humid environments, Tedlar® films are unaffected by mildew.
Tedlar® films can be used in transfer, reverse or direct-printed applications with many water-based, solvent-based or ultraviolet cured inks. Strong solvents and solutions, such as acetone and MEK, will not affect the life of the film, but will help remove unwanted inks and stains with ease.
Available in transparent, translucent and opaque films
Tedlar® films are available in transparent versions that shield UV radiation, as well as translucent and opaque pigmented films that contain no plasticizers, and therefore resist fading, chalking and color shifts for years. For heavy-duty graphics protection, you can print directly on white Tedlar® film and cover it with a clear layer of Tedlar® film.
Typical applications include:
-
Gas pumps
-
Flexible signs and awnings
-
Automobile signage wraps
-
Digital labels
-
Murals
-
Advertisement signage
-
Vending machines
