Introduction to PVC Gelation and Formulation w/ Kevin Yocca

While introducing the general properties of PVC suspension resin that make it unique for processors, the speaker will discuss why PVC formulations can get complicated and present so many options for optimized processing and customization by application. The focus will mostly revolve around suspension PVC for rigid vinyl applications, but touch upon some basics of plasticized or flexible vinyl as well. The speaker will talk about gelation theory, why lubricant balance is important and how different additives can influence rheology, mechanical performance, and even weatherability. The talk will be an introduction to PVC overall but also a lead-in for the next workshop, an introduction to acrylic impact modifiers and core-shell modifier chemistry.

With PVC Stabilizer, it helps with that, you have to mix it at a temperature of aprox. 65-70 degrees Celsius
