2. Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorinated_polyvinyl_chloride

   CPVC shares most of the features and properties of PVC, but also has some key differences. CPVC is readily workable, including machining, welding, and forming. Because of its excellent corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures, CPVC is ideally suited for self-supporting constructions where temperatures up to 200 °F (93 °C) are present.

3. Polyvinyl chloride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvinyl_chloride

   PVC is often used as the insulating sheath on electrical cables. PVC is chosen because of its good electrical insulation, ease of extrusion, and resistance to burn. [40] In a fire, PVC can form hydrogen chloride fumes; the chlorine serves to scavenge free radicals, making PVC-coated wires fire retardant.

4. Vinyl chloride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_chloride

   Vinyl chloride is an organochloride with the formula H 2 C=CHCl. It is also called vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) or chloroethene. It is an important industrial chemical chiefly used to produce the polymer polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Vinyl chloride is a colourless flammable gas that has a sweet odor and is carcinogenic.

5. Thermoplastic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoplastic

   This increase in elemental chlorine content contributes to CPVC's increased expression of chlorine-based characteristics, such as chemical durability, resistance to acids, bases, and salts; susceptibility to ammonia-based compounds, aromatics, esters, ketones; [9] chemical stability; heat energy transfer resistance. CPVC is commonly used in ...

6. Polymer stabilizer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_stabilizer

   The biggest quantity of stabilizers is used for polyvinyl chloride (PVC), as the production and processing of this type of plastic would not be possible without stabilizing chemicals. [1] Common polymer degradation processes include oxidation , UV-damage , thermal degradation , ozonolysis , combinations thereof such as photo-oxidation , as well ...
