Polyvinyl chloride, commonly known as PVC, is a widely used synthetic thermoplastic made from repeating units of vinyl chloride monomers. Depending on the formulation, PVC can be manufactured in either rigid or flexible forms—with the latter achieved through the use of plasticizers. It is well-known for its strong resistance to chemicals, excellent insulating properties, and affordability. PVC is extensively used in the construction industry for products like pipes, window frames, fittings, and cladding. Beyond construction, it finds applications in medical devices, automotive parts, electrical cables, and packaging materials. Thanks to its adaptability, durability, and ease of processing, PVC continues to be a preferred material across a wide range of industrial sectors.

Polybutadiene Rubber (PBR)
Polybutadiene Rubber, or PBR, is a synthetic rubber produced through the polymerization of butadiene. Known for its outstanding elasticity and high rebound properties, PBR also performs exceptionally well in cold conditions due to its low-temperature flexibility. It plays a crucial role in tire manufacturing, where it enhances performance by reducing rolling resistance and improving grip on wet surfaces. Thanks to its resilient molecular structure, PBR is well-suited for demanding environments, offering superior durability and resistance to impact and wear.
Styrene-Butadiene Rubber is a type of synthetic rubber created through the copolymerization of styrene and butadiene. This blend merges the advantages of both monomers, resulting in a material known for its strong resistance to wear and tear, excellent flexibility, and solid aging stability. SBR is widely utilized in the production of tires, shoe soles, conveyor systems, seals, and a variety of molded rubber products. Valued for its reliable mechanical strength and economical production costs, SBR remains a go-to material in industries that demand toughness and longevity.
