  2. 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 ...

  3. Thermoforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoforming

    A sheet of hot plastic will be placed on top and the bed sealed, pulling the plastic down over the mold. In the most common method of high-volume, continuous thermoforming of thin-gauge products, plastic sheet is fed from a roll or from an extruder into a set of indexing chains that incorporate pins, or spikes, that pierce the sheet and ...

  4. Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorinated_polyvinyl_chloride

    Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) is a thermoplastic produced by chlorination of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin. CPVC is significantly more flexible than PVC, and can also withstand higher temperatures. Uses include hot and cold water delivery pipes and industrial liquid handling.

  5. Plastics in the construction industry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastics_in_the...

    Plastics can also be made any color through the addition of pigments. Nevertheless, there are limitations to the use of plastic. Plastics have a low modulus of elasticity, which makes them unsuitable for load-bearing applications. Plastics can also degrade when exposed to sunlight, and many types of plastic soften and deform when heated.

  6. Plastic extrusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_extrusion

    A common post-extrusion process for plastic sheet stock is thermoforming, where the sheet is heated until soft (plastic), and formed via a mold into a new shape. When vacuum is used, this is often described as vacuum forming. Orientation (i.e. ability/ available density of the sheet to be drawn to the mold which can vary in depths from 1 to 36 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_film

    Plastic film is a thin continuous polymeric material. Thicker plastic material is often called a "sheet". Thicker plastic material is often called a "sheet". These thin plastic membranes are used to separate areas or volumes, to hold items, to act as barriers, or as printable surfaces.
