Why Is PVC Film Widely Used in The Building Materials Industry?

Due to the structure of PVC, it is widely used in the building materials industry. Then let's take a look at the structure of PVC so that everyone can better understand the PVC decorative film.

PVC, the full name is Polyvinylchloride, the main component is polyvinyl chloride, and other components are added to enhance its heat resistance, toughness, ductility, etc. It is a well-loved, popular, and widely used synthetic material in the world today.

PVC can be divided into soft PVC and hard PVC. Among them, hard PVC accounts for about 2/3 of the market, and soft PVC accounts for 1/3. Soft PVC is generally used for the surface layer of leather, but because soft PVC contains softener (this is also the difference between soft PVC and hard PVC), it is easy to become brittle and difficult to store, so its scope of use is limited. Hard PVC does not contain softeners, so it has good flexibility, easy to form, not easy to be brittle, non-toxic and pollution-free, and has a long storage time, so it has great development and application value. The essence of PVC is a vacuum blister film, which is used for the surface packaging of various decorative panels, so it is also called decorative film and is used in many industries such as building materials, packaging, and medicine. Among them, the building materials industry accounts for the largest proportion, accounting for 60%, followed by the packaging industry, and several other small-scale application industries. The PVC decorative film produced by our company is mainly used on the surface of the PVC floor.

The PVC film is attached to the surface of the panel by a special vacuum bonding machine, which is not easy to fall off. There are two important reasons why PVC can be widely used in the building materials industry: One is the unique properties of PVC (waterproof and antiskid, fire resistance, antistatic, easy to form), Second, the price of PVC is appropriate and can be accepted by the public. Therefore, PVC film can be widely used in the building materials industry.
