PVC

What is PVC?

PVC is one of the world's most versatile plastics due to its ability to be formulated to acquire different physical and mechanical properties. For this reason, it has found application in diverse industries and is considered one of the most widely used plastics in the world. It is widely used in the construction industry because it is a relatively inexpensive material compared to other plastics, and it is also an excellent flame retardant.

By its nature, PVC resin is a fine, porous, colorless, and odorless powder that, on its own, has no use. It requires the additives that we at Chemical Additives of Mexico offer to manufacture a specific finished product. There are functional additives that aid in the processing of PVC and others that impart specific properties to the finished product. These are incorporated into the resin through a mixing process involving high speeds and temperatures.

Our experience has taught us that polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a complex polymer to formulate, requiring significant technical knowledge to understand the interaction between all the variables involved. Among its advantages is the ability to change its physical properties to make it a very flexible or rigid plastic, depending on the needs of the product being manufactured.
