Product Description
Westlake PVC 1230P PVC resin is a general purpose, medium molecular weight homopolymer designed primarily for the extrusion of rigid PVC products. The resin has a closely controlled particle size distribution and uniform porosity which results in excellent blending characteristics. The 1230P exhibits good heat stability and good bulk density characteristics which makes this particular Westlake PVC especially suitable for the production of rigid pipe and extrusion profiles.

Suggested Applications
Westlake PVC 1230P PVC resin is typically used in rigid PVC compounds which can be processed through both single and multi-screw extrusion of pipe and conduit.
