Abstract
AbstractToday's vinyl molding compounds are successfully meeting the combined challenges of physical properties, appearance, processability, and cost requirements in a variety of specialty injection molding applications such as appliance parts, business equipment, and electrical enclosures. One of the major reasons why vinyl materials are so versatile is that the poly(vinyl chloride) resins on which they are based can be easily modified with a wide variety of additives to tailor the particular performance features of the compounds to their intended applications. Determination of an appropriate combination of PVC resin and additives to produce an effective and cost‐competitive compound, however, is not a simple process. Important considerations in formulating a vinyl molding compound and evaluating its performance are discussed here.
