What is PVC?

Polyvinyl chloride

Polyvinyl chloride, colloquially called polyvinyl or vinyl.

Polyvinyl chloride is also called PVC for short. It is the third largest synthetic plastic polymer (after polyethylene and polypropylene) in the world. About 40 million tons of PVC are produced annually.

Types of PVC

Rigid (sometimes abbreviated RPVC) and flexible.

Hard PVC form is used in construction for pipes and in profile applications such as doors and windows.

The hard form of PVC is used to make plastic bottles, non-edible packaging, food wrappers and plastic cards (such as bank or membership cards). It can be made softer and more flexible by adding softeners, the most common of which are phthalates. As such, it is also used in plumbing, electrical cable insulation, synthetic leather, flooring, marking, turntables, pneumatic products and many applications that replace rubber. Used with cotton or linen in the production of canvas.

History of PVC

Over the twentieth century, two chemists from the German company Grishon Electron tried to use PVC in commercial products, but due to problems in the production process, hardness and fragility of the polymer, their efforts were not successful. In 1926, Waldo Simone found a way to soften the polymer by mixing PVC with various additives, and finally came up with a flexible material that was used commercially.

The polymer appeared as a white solid inside a vinyl chloride flask that remained on a shelf out of direct sunlight for four weeks. Both tried to use PVC in commercial products, but problems with hard and sometimes brittle polymer processing thwarted their efforts. Waldo Semon and B.F. In 1926, Goodrich developed a method of making PVC plastic by combining it with various additives. The result was a more flexible and easier-to-process material that soon gained widespread commercial use.

How is PVC produced?

Like polyethylene and polypropylene, PVC is one of the most widely used polymers. This material can be easily combined with additives and softeners to produce structures with different properties; From soft and flexible films to hard parts.

Kian Group International Company is the largest direct exporter of PVC and the representative of Kian Petroleum Company in Iran, to supply and supply all products of the Energy Exchange and Iran Commodity Exchange for various uses of industries and by selling products of the Energy Exchange and Iran Commodity Exchange in the ring While meeting the needs of customers in overseas markets, International has made it possible to offer a variety of steel products to domestic and foreign markets at competitive prices, which is a sign of the company’s high potential in the field of steel sections such as rebars, beams and sheets.
