What is PVC and Why is it So Widely Used?
PVC is one of the most widely used synthetic polymers worldwide due to its unique characteristics:
- Versatility: Can be rigid or flexible depending on the additives used.
- Durability: Resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and harsh weather conditions.
- Low Environmental Impact: Reduces dependence on fossil fuels.
- Recyclability: Maintains its properties through multiple recycling cycles.
PVC’s Role in Sustainable Development
PVC aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through applications such as:
- Access to Clean Water: PVC pipes ensure safe and efficient distribution.
- Healthcare and Medicine: Found in over 40% of medical devices.
- Renewable Energy: Used in solar panel systems and wind turbines.
- Affordable Infrastructure: Applications in construction, irrigation, and urban development.
What is a PVC Masterbatch and Why is it Essential?
A masterbatch is a concentrated blend of pigments and additives within a carrier resin that enhances PVC’s properties. At Delta Tecnic, our formulations ensure:
- Uniform Color Distribution: Prevents streaking and inconsistencies.
- Advanced Functional Properties: UV protection, flame retardancy, and anti-static characteristics.
- Higher Process Efficiency: Reduces waste and optimizes energy consumption.
Our masterbatches are designed to tackle PVC’s thermal and processing challenges, ensuring stability and consistency.
