PVC-C examples of properties

General chemical properties are subject to the compatibility of the fillers and reinforcements with the ambient conditions. If the fillers are well adapted, the chemical properties are the same for filled and neat polymers. 

Solvents Good behaviour with aliphatic hydrocarbons. 

Attacked by aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, esters, ethers and ketones 

In fact, only copolymers are industrialized, often with PVC in a minor percentage. The main interest is its excellent impermeability to water vapour and gases, suiting PVDC for the packaging industry. 

PVDC is appreciated for its barrier effect to water vapour, gases and aromas as well as its chemical resistance (except to certain solvents), its relative flexibility, fireproofing, the possibility of food contact for special grades, transparency, gloss, scalability (including by high frequency and ultrasound), printability.
