PVC is a strong, stiff, and inexpensive synthetic thermoplastic that is simple to produce and attach with adhesives or solvents. It is the world's third most widely used plastic polymer. PVC has good electrical and thermal qualities, as well as excellent chemical resistance, a high strength-to-weight ratio, low moisture absorption, and good water corrosion resistance. Welded chemical tanks, piping systems, valves, fume hoods, dosing skids, waterproof membranes, and electrical cable insulation are all examples of PVC applications.
