PVC Polyvinyl chloride
PVC is polyvinyl chloride and comes in many different forms. These
different forms modify the properties to suit particular applications.
Plasticisers, stabilisers and impact modifiers can be added to produce
these modifications.
In general, PVC is light, water resistant, offers a long life cycle
and does not require much maintenance. These excellent qualities makes
PVC one of the most commonly used plastics today.
PVC is especially suitable for the construction industry .
Its commercial value results from these characteristics:
1. Basic properties: chemically inert; water, corrosion and weather
resistant; high strength-to-weight ratio; tough, dent-resistant; an
electrical and thermal insulator; and maintains properties over long
periods of time.
2. Process versatility; can be made in different form to permit processing
on a wide variety of equipment; each form can be altered further by
compounding to achieve particular properties in end products which
range from soft to rigid in nature.
3. Properties can be provided at an economic cost. In the long term,
PVC products are less energy-intensive on an installed basis than
most conventional materials. Their light weight, insulating-and maintenance-free
characteristics contribute to conservation of energy over the life
of the product.
