  • Title: [Why must we manufacture vinyl chloride and polyvinyl chloride?].
    Author: Bauer H.
    Journal: Fortschr Med; 1976 Sep 16; 94(26):1422-5. PubMed ID: 976919.
    Abstract:
    The manufacture of PVC is necessary for supplying the demands of modern society, for maintaining the equilibrium in the chemical industry such as the manufacture of caustic soda solution-chlorine by means of rocksalt electrolysis, and for the safe disposal of chlorine for environmental reasons. The manufacture of vinyl chloride and dichloroethane is illustrated. The conventional processing of PVC into consumer goods, after treatment of rigid and plasticized PVC compounds or granulate, is demonstrated.
