Primary Industry Applications
Pipes & Fittings
PVC SG5 is commonly selected for rigid pipe and fittings where processability and strength are required.
Profiles & Windows
Used for rigid profiles, window frames and construction materials with appropriate additives and stabilizer systems.
Cable & Flexible PVC
Applied in cable compounds, soft products and flexible PVC formulations depending on plasticizer and resin grade.
Film, Sheet & Flooring
Used in PVC film, sheet, flooring and decorative materials when matched with the correct K-value and formulation.
Typical Grade Reference
The following table is visible HTML content for buyers and search engines. Exact specifications should be confirmed by current factory COA or datasheet before order confirmation.
| PVC Grade | Typical K-Value | Processing Character | Typical Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
| SG3 | 72 - 74 | Higher molecular weight | Cable, soft products, flexible applications |
| SG5 | 66 - 68 | Balanced processing and strength | Pipes, fittings, profiles, sheet |
| SG8 | 55 - 59 | Easier processing, lower viscosity | Injection, fittings, rigid articles |
| Paste / Specialty PVC | Varies by grade | Formulation dependent | Artificial leather, gloves, coatings |
