2. Sheet vinyl flooring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_vinyl_flooring

   Its escape into the environment is a concern. Other ingredients in vinyl flooring vary widely, and some are harmful. The thickness of the sheet and the wear layer determines the durability of the floor; unlike linoleum, vinyl flooring is usually not homogeneous, and once it wears through the print layer, it will be obviously damaged.

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")

   List of some addition polymers and their uses Polymer Abbreviation Properties Uses Low-density polyethylene: LDPE: Chemically inert, flexible, insulator: Squeeze bottles, toys, flexible pipes, insulation cover (electric wires), six-pack rings, etc. High-density polyethylene: HDPE: Inert, thermally stable, tough and high tensile strength

7. Polyvinylidene chloride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinylidene_chloride

   Polyvinylidene chloride is applied as a water-based coating to films made of other plastics, such as biaxially-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET). This coating increases the barrier properties of the film, reducing the permeability of the film to oxygen and flavours and thus extending the shelf life of the food ...
