Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is a synthetic polymer made from the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM). The chemical formula for PVC is (C2H3Cl)n, where “n” indicates the number of repeating units.

Appearance: White to light yellow powder or granules.

Density: Approximately 1.4 g/cm³.

Melting Point: Typically ranges from 75°C to 105°C depending on the formulation.

Glass Transition Temperature (Tg): Around 80°C.

Thermal Stability: Stable up to about 60°C; degradation begins at higher temperatures.

Tensile Strength: Ranges from 40 to 70 MPa depending on the type and formulation.

Elongation at Break: Generally between 100% and 300%.

Hardness: Shore A hardness can vary widely based on additives, typically between 70A to 90A.

Good resistance to acids, bases, and salts but can be affected by strong solvents like ketones and aromatic hydrocarbons.

Can be blended with various plasticizers, stabilizers, fillers, and colorants to achieve desired properties.

Used in pipes, fittings, and profiles due to its durability and resistance to corrosion.

Insulation for wires and cables because of its excellent electrical insulating properties.

Employed in making flexible films, sheets, and containers due to its versatility and ability to be processed into various forms.

Utilized in interior trims, dashboards, and under-the-hood components owing to its lightweight nature and durability.

Found in toys, household items, flooring materials, and medical devices due to its safety when properly formulated.

Not classified as hazardous under OSHA regulations; however, dust may cause respiratory irritation if inhaled in large quantities.

Contains polyvinyl chloride along with various additives which may include stabilizers or plasticizers depending on the specific product formulation.

Inhalation: Move affected person to fresh air; seek medical attention if symptoms persist.

Skin Contact Wash with soap and water; seek medical attention if irritation occurs.

Suitable extinguishing media include water spray, foam, dry chemical powder; avoid using water jets as they may spread fire.

Sweep up spills carefully; avoid generating dust; dispose of waste according to local regulations.

Store in a cool dry place away from heat sources; use appropriate personal protective equipment when handling powdered forms.

Use appropriate ventilation systems; wear masks if dust is generated during processing.

Stable under normal conditions but can decompose at high temperatures releasing hydrochloric acid gas.

Dispose of according to local environmental regulations; recycling options should be considered where applicable.
