PVC is a polymer derived from sodium chloride and oil or natural gas. It is a white, odorless powder that is light, non-flammable, and resistant to chemicals and compression. PVC can be recycled and has many applications, as it does not degrade in water and has a long service life. Common uses of PVC include wire and pipe insulation, construction materials, toys, automotive parts, medical devices, and more.

PVC plastics
DESCRIPTION It´s a polymer derived from two natural raw materials: -Sodium chloride or common salt and oil or natural gas. -Its original form is a white, amorphous powder & opaque. -It is odorless, innocuous tasteless and to chemicals. -High resistance to compression crushing -It is very economical
DESCRIPTION • It is light and non-flammable so it is classified as flame retardant material. • It does not degrade or dissolve in water. • It´s recyclable. Will not rust or corrode, with long service life. • High resistance to compression crushing • Easily picklable, acarreable and transportable.
Is PVC plastic recyclable? PVC is easily recyclable and recycled once has many applications. If we study history, we see that PVC recycling is as old as manufacturing. The recycling of PVC is technologically simple and feasible from an economic point of view, existing in Europe an important very competitive recycling industry.
History • In 1835 Justus discovered vinyl chloride by reacting ethylene di-chloride with potassium. • In 1915, Fritz Klatte achieved polymerize vinyl chloride. • In 1926 production begins in Germany. • In 1953, Ziegler developed polyethylene. • In 1954 Giulio Natta polypropylene developed. • In 1959 was born in Costa Rica marketing PVC pipes.
Specific properties About PVC resistance: Excellent resistance to dilute: concentrated acids, alcohols, bases, aliphatic hydrocarbons and mineral oils. Good resistance to vegetable oils and oxidizing agents. Limited resistance to aldehydes. Poor resistance (not recommended for use) with aldehydes, esters aromatic and halogenated hydrocarbons and ketones.
Some interesting facts about PVC properties: o Maximum Temperature: 158°F 70°C o Minimum Temperature: -13°F -25°C o Autoclavable: No o Melting Point: 176°F 80°C o Tensile Strength: 6,500 psi o Hardness: R105 o UV Resistance: Good o Clear o Rigid o Specific Gravity: 1.34
