In this single handbook, the editors aim to give a diverse audience of readers a complete account of all aspects of PVC - from monomer manufacture to polymerization; the gamut of such additives as stabilizers, lubricants, plasticizers, impact modifiers, fillers and reinforcing agents; blends and alloys; compounding and processing; characterization; combustion resistance and weatherability; product engineering design; applications; environmental and safety; and finally the PVC industry dynamics.The handbook contains both practical formulation information as well as a mechanistic view of why PVC behaves as it does. The 2nd edition is comprehensively updated throughout, with all-new chapters on PVC recycling, sustainability, and decarbonization. Contents: - Vinyl Chloride Monomer- Polymerization- PVC Stabilizers and Lubricants- Plasticizers- Processing Aids and Impact Modifiers- Fillers and Reinforcing Agents- PVC Blends and Alloys- Compounding Processes- Flexible PVC- Specialty Grade PVC Resins- Physical Properties and Characterization of PVC- Flammability and Fire Performance- Weathering of PVC Compounds- Fabrication Processes- Product Engineering Design- PVC Applications, their Standards and Regulations and Starting Formulations- PVC Environmental, Health, Safety- PVC Industry Structure and Dynamics- PVC Recycling- PVC Sustainability- PVC Decarbonization
