Polyvinyl chloride, commonly known as PVC, is a type of plastic widely used in construction, piping, and electrical insulation due to its robustness and versatility. An important property of PVC is its thermal conductivity, which affects how well it can transfer heat. Typically, PVC has a low thermal conductivity compared to metals, making it an inefficient conductor of heat. This characteristic can actually be beneficial in applications where thermal insulation is required. The thermal conductivity of PVC generally ranges from 0.14 to 0.28 W/(m·K), indicating that it does not easily allow the flow of heat. This makes PVC an excellent material for insulating cables, pipes, and in constructing windows and doors where minimizing heat transfer is desired. However, for applications requiring efficient heat dissipation, PVC might not be the most suitable material without modifications or the addition of thermal conductive fillers.
