Optimizing the tensile strength of polyvinyl chloride with a benzidine additive

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Diamine added to a PVC mixture treated for 15 min on rollers promotes a strength, gain due to a knitting together of structural elements using macroradicals mat form during mechanical destruction.

  2. 2.

    An increase in treatment temperature above 160°C results in deactivation of the diamine by retaining it in the hydrochloride form of hydrochloric acid liberated in the process of thermal destruction; the latter is predominant under these conditions.

  3. 3.

    The maximum mechanical strength of articles formed from PVC and worked on rollers for 15 min occurs with an additive of 4.25% diamine and at a temperature of 170°C.
