Frequently Asked Questions About Rigid PVC

What is the difference between rigid PVC and flexible PVC?

Rigid PVC is an unplasticized polyvinyl chloride compound that delivers high mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability for structural applications including profiles, pipe, fittings, and industrial components. Flexible PVC incorporates plasticizers to deliver softness, elasticity, and resilience for applications such as wire and cable insulation and consumer products. Aurora’s rigid PVC formulations focus on impact strength, weatherability, and flame-retardant properties; manufacturers who need plasticized grades can explore Aurora’s dedicated Flexible PVC compounds.

What industries use Aurora’s PVC compounds?

Aurora’s rigid PVC compounds serve construction, electrical and electronics, industrial, commercial and retail, and transportation markets. Specific applications include construction profiles such as siding, trim, window and door, fence, and deck and rail, plus pipe and fittings, electrical conduit, raceways, enclosures, signage, displays, and clear packaging. Aurora develops custom formulations for each application’s specific performance, regulatory, and processing requirements.

Are Aurora’s PVC compounds custom-formulated or off-the-shelf?

Aurora’s rigid PVC compounds are primarily custom-formulated to match specific customer performance, processing, and regulatory requirements. Aurora’s technical team optimizes stabilizer packages, impact modifiers, process aids, additive levels, and color matching to deliver compounds that meet exact specifications. Custom capabilities include flame retardancy, UV stabilization, impact modification, cellular density control, and specialty fillers for cost reduction and sustainability.

What is PVC composite technology?

PVC composite technology combines traditional PVC with innovative filler systems and reinforcement options to deliver improved stiffness, reduced material costs, and enhanced sustainability profiles without sacrificing processability or end-use performance. Aurora’s PVC composites are used in construction, deck and rail, and industrial applications where strength, durability, and environmental benefits are required. Composite formulations can include mineral fillers, reinforcing fibers, and recycled content to achieve specific performance and cost targets.

What regulatory standards do Aurora’s PVC compounds meet?

Aurora’s rigid PVC compounds are primarily custom-formulated to match specific customer performance, processing, and regulatory requirements. Aurora’s technical team optimizes stabilizer packages, impact modifiers, process aids, additive levels, and color matching to deliver compounds that meet exact specifications. Custom capabilities include flame retardancy, UV stabilization, impact modification, cellular density control, and specialty fillers for cost reduction and sustainability.

Can Aurora’s PVC compounds be made flame-retardant or low-smoke?

Yes, Aurora formulates flame-retardant and low-smoke PVC compounds for wire and cable, electrical, construction, and industrial applications. Options include UL 94 V-0 rated flame-retardant grades, low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) formulations for enclosed spaces and public areas, and both halogenated and non-halogenated flame-retardant systems. AuroraGuard™ products specifically focus on high-heat, low-smoke, and flame-retardant performance for safety-critical applications.

What is rigid cellular PVC and when is it used?

Rigid cellular PVC is a foamed PVC compound that offers reduced density and material savings while maintaining strength, rigidity, and surface quality. The foamed structure provides dimensional stability, excellent nail and screw retention, and weather resistance, making it ideal for trim, molding, signage, decorative panels, and construction products where weight reduction matters. Aurora’s custom cellular PVC formulations balance density reduction with mechanical performance for each specific application.
