In contrast to other thermoplastics, PVC resin is produced in powder form. The rest of thermoplastics are supplied in a form of compounds as granular already mixed with additives (like the antioxidants, etc). That's why long-term storage is possible since the material is resistant to oxidation...

It is important to note that most high-end composite decking boards are covered with PVC material on the outside. This keeps most surfaces of the decking boards dry. There is no problem using composite decking boards near water, and they are much more water resistant than standard wood deckin...
the material is also used in accessories and interior design. PVC fabric is available in 4-way or 2-way stretch, which differ in the type of stretch knit backing used for the cloth. Use 2-way stretch PVC for home decorating and stiffer accessories, like handbags. Use 4-way stretch for...
PVC foam sheets have many names such as expanded PVC, polyvinyl chloride foam boards, and Komatex board. Contrary to its name, it is not made from average foam, this plastic-based material is formed from foam polyvinyl chloride. This plastic panel was first created by Eugen Baumann, a ...
PVC pipeis produced from a blend of materials whose major ingredient is polyvinyl chloride resin. In the plastics industry, the word “resin” refers to the basic polymer used as raw material and “compound” refers to a homogeneous blend of resin and various additives. Polyvinyl chloride resin...
Common items made from this material include yogurt cups, carryout containers, disposable cutlery as well as meat and produce trays. Now you know what each plastic is really made of (all the way down to its elemental origins)! Some containers can be fluorinated while others are flame treated....
The History of PVC PVC is short for polyvinyl chloride. The compound was first discovered in 1872 by Eugen Baumann, a German chemist. No one really knew what to do with the new substance until a researcher at B.F. Goodrich modified the formula to create a synthetic rubber-like material. ...
PVC coated material is composed of a similar base polyester fabric that is passed through molten liquid vinyl and then extruded (or shaved) down to the desired thickness. As with laminated fabrics the coated formed material is passed over rollers to create the desired finished appearance. The res...
