What is Pvc?

PVC is the abbreviated form of the word \'\' vinyl \'\', (Poly Vinyl Chloride) with the common expression and is a type of polymer produced from petroleum (or natural gas) and salt in petrochemical plants with the formula - (CH2-CH2). After this polymer is blended with various additives, it is plasticized and used by shaping at high temperatures. PVC is one of the rare thermoplastics that carries chlorine atom in its polymer chain. Because of its chlorine content, PVC\'s flammability temperature is high, it immediately goes out when the flame is ignited. PVC easily degrades thermally at very high temperatures and releases hydrochloric acid, a corrosive gas. PVC can be mixed with a larger amount and variety of additives compared to other polymers. Therefore, the cost of PVC plastic material is relatively low; Provides general and multi-purpose use. PVC is the most used type of polymer after Polyethylene.

WHERE IS PVC USED?

PVC was first synthesized in the 1920s, but it started to be used after the 1930s, and its use was especially in the II. It increased during the World War II years; It has been one of the most widely used polymer types in the last 20-30 years.
PVC is used in the construction industry (window profile, door, shutter, irrigation and sewage pipes, wall-floor and roofing material) to the packaging-packaging industry (bi-oriente thin shrink film, cork in the lid, bottle and bag production), medicine various applications (such as blood bag, serum tube, surgical glove and heart catheter)
from the production of electrical and electronic materials (as high volt insulator, optical fiber envelope), from its uses in the automotive field (as glass wick / wiper system, upholstery, mats), to the production of various other consumer goods (toys, various sports materials, linoleum, artificial leather and shoes; and even the making of credit cards), in short, it is widely used in almost every aspect of our lives.

IS PVC ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY?

It is suggested that PVC, like other plastics, pollutes and harms the environment. However, the effect of PVC on the environment is primarily \"visual\".
Due to the low density and the large volume of the produced parts, they immediately stand out in the wastes, like other plastic wastes. However, if you pay attention;
1 PVC wastes, such as paper and glass wastes, can be collected and recycled (vinyl glass profile or other plastic material can be added to the production line in certain proportions and can be reused, even turned into fibers in the textile industry,
2 PVC material not only harms the environment but also undertakes the duty of protecting the environment in a sense. With the use of PVC in the production of window profiles or doors, \"wood is replaced\", cutting down trees is reduced and forests are protected. In this respect, PVC is \"environmentally friendly\" and \"has undertaken the duty of protecting the environment\".
3 Materials commonly used in window profile and door production are PVC-Aluminum and Wood. According to a study (EMPA 1991/2), window profiles made of wood and PVC, \'\' Considering the average usage of 15 years \'\', \'\' PVC windows are 46% cheaper than hard wood and 40% cheaper than softwood \'\' and the result that environmental effects are similar. During this period, while PVC profiles do not require any painting, the wooden material will have to be painted many times. \'\' LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) analyzes, which is an up-to-date evaluation system that takes into account the life cycle from production to disappearance and the degree of environmental impact during this cycle, share the same results. It is known that aluminum production requires approximately 4 times more energy than PVC and this sector pollutes the environment a lot.
4 PVC provides lightness, like all plastics. PVC is much lighter than wood. On the other hand, if aluminum and PVC blocks of the same volume are compared, it is seen that PVC is about two times lighter.
5 Another environmental contribution of the use of PVC window profiles is that it saves fuel due to the good insulation it provides and reduces various fuel gases such as carbon dioxide, which has an increasing effect on air pollution in the environment. In this regard, if the heat conduction coefficients of Wood-Aluminum and PVC are compared;
WOOD: 8W / m2. K; Aluminum: 5.9 w / m2. K; PVC: <0.8 W / m2. With K values, it is understood that there will be 30-50% less use in the amount of fuel with the use of pure PVC material. The reduction in the fuel used will lead to a reduction in environmental pollution, less waste gas and ash, and will provide economic gain.

DOES PVC MAKE CANCER?

In this regard, it is necessary to transfer information on two different subjects as (1) VC monomer and (2) used additives. (1) VC Monomer: It is obtained by full polymerization of Vinyl Chloride (shortly VC) monomer produced from PVC, petrol and salt in the first stage. . For about 20 years, it is known that direct VC intake above a certain dose causes a special type of cancer that focuses on the liver. For this reason, it is not allowed to have more than 2 ppm (two parts per million) Vc in the gas environment in factories where VC is produced. This amount has been reduced to 1 ppm for safety in recent years. Nevertheless, it should be added that as a result of today\'s developing technologies, existing PVC factories all over the world operate in controlled closed systems, are constantly monitored with advanced measurement systems, and there is no contact or leakage of the VC and the external environment. As a matter of fact, according to the reports of the World Health Organization, no health problems related to VC have been encountered in any country since 1978. However, one thing should be noted: if polymerization is not done carefully when producing PVC from VC, some VC; The polymer produced can remain inside the PVC. Rightly, VC, which can remain in PVC, is the leading issue that causes anxiety in the public opinion. However, PVC, which is a product obtained after polymerization applied with care, will not cause any health problems in terms of VC.
Today\'s profile producers still need to regularly monitor the VC amounts in the PVC they use. (2) Additives: Before PVC is processed, for example, as a profile, \"impact modifier\" in order to increase the durability, some (usually Barium, Cadmium, Tin and Lead-based bases) in order to increase the heat and light resistance. heavy metal salts) \"stabilizers and pigments\" (usually Titanium based); In addition, \"various fillers\" (eg calcium carbonate coated with stearic acid) and additives and lubricants that facilitate flow into the process are used. No special treatment is applied to the PVC profile surface; However, when special surface colors (eg wood color) are desired, some acrylic layers are added to the surface with a special process. As it is known, heavy metals such as lead and its salts are dangerous as long as they accumulate in the body. Among the additives mentioned, it is known that leaded compounds, which attract attention as poisonous, have been used in profile manufacturing since the 1970s and no effects have been reported until today. On the contrary, PVC pipes produced by adding lead compounds in certain proportions are allowed to be used even in drinking water networks.
It is known that cadmium-added PVCs, which are known to have carcinogenic effects, are used as window profiles in EC countries whose properties are extremely sensitive about PVC applications. Tin and zinc additives known to be non-toxic and increase the resistance of profiles to external effects are also recommended by the American Pharmaceutical Association (FDA). .
In short, all these additives used in PVC do not have any effect on human health for the limits of use.

DO PVC DOORS AND WINDOWS SMELL?

The PVc windows and doors used are in solid state and no gas release is expected at room temperature. However, where PVC profiles are attached, the presence of an odor is mentioned and anxiety is felt. As with every new material, PVC profiles are also produced and transferred. There may be some smell that has permeated for some reasons, but this will disappear in a short time. PVC profiles are excellent in terms of air and water tightness, as the test results show; Therefore, any odor that is said to be formed later in the room cannot leak out, as in wooden material, due to this superior \"impermeability\" and therefore may intensify over time. The ventilation of the room by opening the windows bearing PVC profiles from time to time will undoubtedly be healthy.

HOW TO CLEAN AND MAINTAIN PVC WINDOWS?

After the assembly, if any, plaster and whitewash repairs are made. The protective tape is removed and the exposure of the tape to heat and sunlight for a long time will cause it to boil to the profile surface, making it difficult to remove. To prevent this, the tapes should be removed in cool weather. Otherwise, it would be more appropriate to apply a thin oil heated up to 55 ° C on the surface of the tape and wait for 4-5 hours and then remove it.
Materials such as paint and mortar adhered to the profiles should be cleaned immediately but carefully without scratching.
Care should be taken that the detergents used for cleaning do not contain excessive particles, liquid or cream ones should be preferred. Contact with metal equipped water or soap should be avoided.
· PVC systems should not be cleaned with solvents or bleaches.
Even in heavy rainy weather conditions, the water channels that provide safe water discharge are cleaned from time to time, giving better results.
Espagnolettes should be oiled once a year in order to work comfortably. Thus, premature wear is prevented. Grease is ideal for this job. All adjustments must be made by our authorized dealers in order not to damage the equipment.
Humidity is the water vapor in the air and varies depending on the air temperature. When moisture meets cold surfaces like glass, it becomes water and perspiration occurs. Existing frame-wing gaps of wooden joinery prevent perspiration. In PVC systems, thanks to gaskets, it is not possible for perspiration to be destroyed by air flow. Therefore, the spaces with PVC should be ventilated by opening the wings at appropriate times. This is also important for health, as it means constant fresh air circulation and balanced humidity.
To prevent sweating on the surface of the building elements;
1 The temperature inside should be around 20-22 C.
2 Parts of the building that use intense water such as bathroom and WC should be ventilated with windows.
3 The water vapor released during cooking should be removed with stove top aspirators.
It should be ventilated at least 4-5 times a day.
