PVC resin itself is rigid and brittle in its pure form, but it can be modified with additives — such as plasticizers, stabilizers, fillers, and pigments — to produce materials ranging from flexible, rubber-like products to rigid, durable structural components. This adaptability is a major reason PVC has become a cornerstone material across so many industries.
Excellent chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, and salts
Strong durability and long service life
Inherently flame-retardant due to its chlorine content
Good electrical insulation properties
Cost-effective compared to many alternative materials
Recyclable and available in both rigid and flexible forms
