Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the global renewal of interest in PVC, this comprehensive book is well timed. Considering that PVC stabilization is the most important part of its formulation and performance, only four books have ever been published on this subject, and none since the 1980s. This book contains information on: chemical structure; PVC manufacturing technology; morphology; degradation by thermal energy and UV, gamma, and other forms of radiation; mechanodegradation; chemical degradation; analytic methods used in studying degradative and stabilization processes; stabilization; and the effect of PVC and its additives on health, safety, and environment. This is the one authoritative source on this subject.
