The research and design phase can be the most rewarding and the most frustrating time in a product's development, especially when you have to dive into less familiar territory. If plastics aren't your area of expertise, you may be surprised to learn about the many ways this versatile, durable, cost-effective substance can help you finish your R&D project.
Polyvinyl chloride is the main ingredient in plastisol, with additional compounds called plasticizers added to provide its characteristic elasticity, soft feel, and flexibility.
Plastisol's versatility makes it an excellent choice for countless applications across numerous industries. Some characteristics of plastisol that may offer solutions for R&D projects include:
Plastisol can be clear or opaque, and pigments can be added to match nearly any color desired. Special effects such as glitter, and fluorescent or glow-in-the-dark colors can be added, as can textured finishes.
With superior resistance to many chemicals, corrosion, impacts, abrasion, electricity, mold, mildew, and many other environmental hazards, plastisol is up to almost any challenge.
Offering solid performance in temperatures ranging from -35°F to 200°F, plastisol is suitable for a wide variety of environments.
With its soft, rubbery feel, plastisol makes handles easier, safer, and more comfortable to grip. The same quality makes it a great sound and vibration dampener.
Strong and protective, plastisol is difficult to damage and when used as a coating, offers that added protection to the coated substrate below.
Plastisol offers so much customizability, functionality, and durability, you might be surprised to know it's also one of the most cost-effective plastic coatings on the market.
If you've heard disparaging things about PVC or plastisol, rest easy — phthalate-free formulations of plastisol are available, offering the same benefits in a more eco-friendly way.
