  2. Sheet vinyl flooring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_vinyl_flooring

    This sheet is coated in vinyl and plasticizer. The resulting sheet is printed and possibly embossed (the print layer). Then the sheet is coated again with one or more protective wear layers, the topmost of which may be polyurethane, to avoid waxing. [7] Cushioned vinyl sheet was developed in the 1960s. It features closed-cell-foam lower layers ...

  3. Vinyl composition tile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_composition_tile

    Vinyl floor tiling. Vinyl composition tile (VCT) is a finished flooring material used primarily in commercial and institutional applications. Modern vinyl floor tiles and sheet flooring and versions of those products sold since the early 1980s are composed of colored polyvinyl chloride (PVC) chips formed into solid sheets of varying thicknesses (1 ⁄ 8 in or 3.2 mm is most common) by heat and ...

  4. Vinyl polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_polymer

    Vinyl polymers are subject of several structural variations, which greatly expands the range of polymers and their applications. With the exception of polyethylene, vinyl polymers can arise from head-to-tail linking of monomers, head-to-head combined with tail-to-tail, or a mixture of those two patterns. Additionally the substituted carbon center in such polymers is stereogenic (a "chiral center")

  5. Plastic film - Wikipedia

    Film strip (photographic film) 6 mil polyethylene plastic sheet as vapor barrier in construction Confectionery packaging made of PLA-blend bio-flex bioplastic Shrink-wrapped OH-58 Kiowa helicopters to be shipped. Plastic film is a thin continuous polymeric material. Thicker plastic material is often called a "sheet".

  6. Polyvinyl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinyl_chloride

    Polyvinyl chloride is formed in flat sheets in a variety of thicknesses and colors. As flat sheets, PVC is often expanded to create voids in the interior of the material, providing additional thickness without additional weight and minimal extra cost (see closed-cell PVC foamboard). Sheets are cut using saws and rotary cutting equipment.

  7. Polymeric foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymeric_foam

    Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam, the copolymers of ethylene and vinyl acetate; also referred to as polyethylene-vinyl acetate (PEVA) Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) foam, first grade of polyethylene (PE) Nitrile rubber (NBR) foam, the copolymers of acrylonitrile (ACN) and butadiene; Polychloroprene foam or Neoprene; Polyimide foam

  8. Flexi disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexi_disc

    The flexi disc (also known as a phonosheet, Sonosheet or Soundsheet, a trademark) is a phonograph record made of a thin, flexible vinyl sheet with a molded-in spiral stylus groove, and is designed to be playable on a normal phonograph turntable. Flexible records were commercially introduced as the Eva-tone Soundsheet in 1962.

  9. Palladium hydride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palladium_hydride

    The hydrogen atoms occupy interstitial sites in palladium hydride. The H–H bond in H 2 is cleaved. The ratio in which H is absorbed on Pd is defined by = [] [].When Pd is brought into a H 2 environment with a pressure of 1 atm, the resulting concentration of H reaches x ≈ 0.7.
