- It is the most versatile plastic and the use of PVC pipes in buildings is becoming day by day. it is possible to substantially change or modify the properties of PVC resin by the technique of compounding.
Polyvinyl Chloride Resins:
- They are totally rust-proof, rot-proof, termite-proof, and waterproof.
- they are unaffected by coastal saline air, dry heat, sub-zero temperatures, or tropical rains.
- They do not fade, corrode flake, or warp and require no maintenance
- They provide better thermal insulation.
Polyethylene Resin:
- Polyethylene resins are thermoplastic polymers which means that they may be formed with heat and re-melted without losing their intrinsic characteristic. that is commonly used for manufacturing plastic shopping bags, and packaging, and also used for waterproofing.
- It is made up of a complex chain of ethylene monomers.
