About UV resistant PVC
Anti-UV PVC is a flexible PVC range that has anti-UV properties for added protection from ultraviolet light.
The specific anti-UV additive, included in the PVC, provides optimum resistance to aggressive weather conditions and guarantees that it will last for a long time.
Anti-UV soft PVC can be used for many applications but we recommended it for doors and window applications, i.e. with rapid roller doors, marquee’s, tents or boat covers.
Applications
Why Use Anti-UV PVC?
Anti-UV PVC have been treated to resist the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight.
UV radiation can cause PVC to degrade over time, leading to discoloration, brittleness, and loss of mechanical properties.
By incorporating UV stabilizers into the PVC formulation, we are able to extend the lifespan and maintain the appearance of PVC products exposed to sunlight, making them more durable and suitable for outdoor use.
Anti-UV flexible PVC can be used for many applications but is most commonly used for doors and window applications, i.e. with rapid roller doors, marquees, tents or boat covers.
Common application
- Tents and Marquees
- Roofing and Windows
- Medical Facilities
- Spray booths
- Boating and Yachting
- Tanning Salons
How work UV Absorbers ?
These additives work by absorbing UV radiation and converting it into harmless heat energy.
UV absorbers are typically organic molecules that are incorporated into the PVC formulation. When UV radiation strikes the PVC material, the UV absorbers absorb the radiation, preventing it from reaching the polymer chains and causing degradation.
