PVC Granules are versatile raw materials used in producing a wide range of PVC products, including pipes, profiles, and sheets. Known for their durability, flexibility, and cost-efficiency, PVC granules are essential for high-quality manufacturing.

What are PVC Granules?

PVC Granules are small, pelletized forms of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) resin that are ready for use in various manufacturing processes, including extrusion, injection molding, and calendaring. They are a convenient and efficient way to handle and process PVC, especially in industries like window profile production, piping, and flooring. Here’s a detailed explanation of PVC granules:

1. Types of PVC Granules for Manufacturing
   • Rigid PVC Granules:
     • Used for applications requiring strength and rigidity, such as window profiles, pipes, and sheets.
     • Contains little to no plasticizers.
   • Flexible PVC Granules:
     • Used for applications requiring flexibility, such as cables, hoses, and flooring.
     • Contains plasticizers (e.g., phthalates) to soften the material.
   • Transparent PVC Granules:
     • Used for clear or translucent products, such as bottles and packaging.
     • Contains minimal fillers and pigments.
   • Customized PVC Granules:
     • Tailored to specific applications by adjusting the formulation (e.g., UV resistance for outdoor use).

Applications of Polyvinyl Chloride Granules

• • Window Profiles: Rigid PVC granules are extruded into frames and profiles for windows and doors.
  • Pipes and Fittings: Used in plumbing, drainage, and irrigation systems.
  • Cables and Wires: Flexible PVC granules are used for insulation and sheathing.
  • Flooring: Used in vinyl tiles and sheets.
  • Packaging: Transparent PVC granules are used for bottles, blister packs, and clamshells.
  • Automotive: Used in dashboards, seat covers, and interior trims.

Advantages of Using PVC Granules

• • Ease of Processing: Ready-to-use granules simplify the manufacturing process.
  • Consistency: Uniform size and composition ensure consistent product quality.
  • Customization: Can be tailored to meet specific requirements (e.g., color, flexibility, UV resistance).
  • Cost Efficiency: Reduces material waste and processing time.
