Physicomechanical Properties of Polyvinyl-Chloride–Polystyrene Plastics

  • Published:
Materials Science Aims and scope

We study the influence of the nature of polystyrene modifiers and diester-phthalate plasticizers on the surface hardness, Vicat softening point, degree of release of the plasticizer, and elastoplastic properties of polyvinyl-chloride plastics and their composites. We also discover the influence of polymer-silicate fillers and polystyrene-magnetite materials on the physicomechanical and thermal characteristics of the modified polyvinyl-chloride plastics and determine the conditions of directed regulation of the technological and operating properties of these materials.
