PVC foam sheet has many names, such as expanded PVC, polyvinyl chloride foam board, Komatex board, etc. Contrary to its name, it is not made of ordinary foam, this plastic-based material is made of foamed polyvinyl chloride.
There are two different types of PVC, such as rigid PVC and soft PVC. Rigid PVC is mainly used in more robust applications such as bottles, curtain rails, window frame tubes, etc., while flexible PVC is mainly used in items such as floors, roofs, shower curtains, cable and wire insulation, toys, and more.
Expanded PVC has excellent resistance to many elements such as water, fire, mildew and mildew. Its advantages come from its chemical and physical properties.
- Waterproof and flame retardant
Expanded PVC is known for its self-extinguishing properties. This is due to its inherent flame retardancy, PVC cannot catch fire because it is not flammable. PVC foam board has a UL-94 flame rating and is ideal for trade show and showroom use. Due to its closed-cell structure and extremely low absorption value, expanded PVC is also an ideal plastic for outdoor applications that require weather resistance.
- Mildew-proof and mildew-proof
Expanded PVC is mold and mildew resistant. Because of its non-hygroscopic and impact-resistant properties, it is the perfect material for decorating or other wood replacement projects in living and professional spaces.
- Weather resistance
Expanded PVC is resistant to many types of weather, such as wind, rain and prolonged sun exposure. This makes PVC foam ideal for outdoor commercial applications.
