Buy good quality low price SG5 Polyvinyl Chloride PVC Resin with Medium molecular weight suitable for general purpose applications at Wedge India. PVC resin grades are categorized based on their molecular weight, which directly influences their K-value (a measure of viscosity and molecular size).
PVC resin SG5 refers to a type of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin that is widely used in various industries. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Resin SG5 is one of the most widely used PVC grades, offering a balance of properties suitable for a variety of applications. SG5 has medium molecular weight and viscosity, making it ideal for both rigid and semi-rigid applications.
PVC Resin SG5 is a white and free-flowing resin. The resin can be mixed with a variety of additives to achieve a wide range of desired characteristics that are required for many different applications. PVC is a versatile material with good colouration, corrosion resistance, water resistance, chemical stability and thermal stability.
PVC Resin SG5 is used in plastic production. Common items in the construction industry made from PVC include pipes, electrical cables, flooring, plastic membranes and signage. PVC is used in packaging materials, adhesive tapes and furniture production.
