Vinyl is artificial, a subtle and spectacular man-made invention. It is drawn from ethylene, which is found in crude oil. Chlorine is another predecessor to this product. The chlorine from salts and ethylene is then combined to form a compound called polyvinyl chloride resin or PVC, which in layman’s terms is called Vinyl.
When was vinyl first invented and its history?
It was first invented in 1920 by a group of scientists who wanted to develop a material which would aid in the manufacture of everyday unitality products. The aim was to make something easier to make, and cheaper than the raw material available in the market. Today, it has become of the largest manufactured and sold the product in the world.
What are the common properties of vinyl?
Vinyl has many properties that make it a useful material.
- high resistance to moisture and humidity
- competent durability as a plastic material
- easy manufacturing in a variety of colors
- can be made transparent and solid
- low material cost
What prospects were made possible after the invention of vinyl
The material in vinyl, unlike much other plastic substance, can be recycled. Every product made from vinyl can boast of high durability and a long-life span. Combined with the property of recycling and durability imparts an even greater life span to it.
The environment-friendly material helps in the preservation of the environment resources because 57 per cent of the vinyl is made from salt that Is a renewable substance existing naturally. The non-replenishable component in it which is crude oil makes up for a meagre 47 per cent. Hence vinyl floorings are quite a trend which comes in various vinyl flooring pattern[ลายกระเบื้องยาง, which is the name in Thai]. You should get one for your home too.
