One of the most versatile thermoplastics is use today is called polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Used for a variety of applications ranging from home construction to food packing. Features of this product include low cost, superior flame resistance and  excellent strength-to-weight ratio make PVC the material of choice. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or “vinyl” is usually an amorphous thermoplastic material with low moisture absorption, good flammability characteristics, excellent chemical resistance and dielectric properties, exceptional dimensional stability.

The physical properties of PVC can be readily altered by impact modifiers, the addition of plasticizers and other ingredients to develop and enhance specific properties. The maximum service temperature for PVC is 140°F (60°C).

PVC applications:

• Planting Tanks
• Fabricated Piping Components
• Chemical Processing Equipment
• Acid Baths
• Air Handling (Scrubbers, Ducts, and Fume Hoods)
• Acid Baths
• Electrical Cabinets
• Pool Components
