Product Description
Polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) is a man-made thermoplastic polymer renowned for its ability to block moisture, gases, and flavors. It is made through the polymerization of vinylidene chloride, often with comonomers, like vinyl chloride or acrylonitrile, using suspension or emulsion polymerization techniques. It can be found in different forms like films, coatings, and extruded products, which can be further classified according to their specific uses and how they are processed, including coextruded films, laminated films, and heat-sealable coatings.
PVDC is crucial for prolonging the shelf life of food items because it helps prevent spoilage and preserve the original taste. It is also employed in pharmaceutical packaging to safeguard drugs from damage because of moisture and oxygen. It displays excellent chemical resistance, high clarity, and good mechanical strength, making it ideal for diverse applications. Furthermore, its ability to be recycled and its compatibility with other polymers make it a sustainable option for various industrial uses.
