Properties of Plasticised PVC

  • Chapter
PVC Technology

Abstract

Chapters 5 and 6 have discussed the more theoretical aspects of plasticisation, and the types and general properties of the classes of plasticisers used commercially. It is the intention of this chapter to investigate the properties of plasticised PVC and the effect of differing plasticisers and plasticiser levels more thoroughly. The intention is to give the reader a grounding in plasticised PVC technology and a guide to formulating for specific end-use properties.
