What are the differences between uPVC and PVC?
PVC is the acronym for polyvinylchloride. It is a thermoplastic polymer. It is one of the most commonly used thermoplastic polymers, and is one of the highest revenue-generating products in the chemical industry. It is used to make electric wires, polyvinylchloride (PVC) pipes and unplasticised polyvinylchloride (uPVC) pipes. The most common use of polyvinylchloride (PVC) is to make pipes. The pipes are most commonly used for the purposes of drainage and for protecting or containing the cables in buildings. Unplasticised polyvinylchloride (abbreviated as uPVC) is a low maintenance material. It is used in the construction industry. It is available in a variety of colours and finishes. The photo-effect wood finish of unplasticised polyvinylchloride is used in window frames and window sills as a substitute for painted wood. It is also used as a replacement for older windows which have been installed with a single glazing or while installing double glazing in a new building.
