Q
what’s polyvinyl chloride
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Polyvinyl chloride, commonly known as PVC, is a widely used synthetic plastic polymer. It stands out in the plastic family for its versatility, appearing in two basic forms: rigid (often used in construction and piping) and flexible (used in clothing, electrical cable insulation, and more). PVC is made from the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomers.
One of the main reasons for its popularity is its durability, resistance to environmental degradation, and low cost. However, PVC production and disposal pose environmental and health risks due to the release of toxic chemicals such as dioxins. Innovations and regulations aim to minimize these impacts, including the development of more sustainable, bio-based, or recyclable PVC variants.
