Difference between PVC board and acrylic board

PVC board and acrylic board are both building materials, which are widely used in various buildings. Many people don't know which plate PVC and acrylic is better. Today, Xiaobian will introduce PVC and acrylic to see the difference between them. Let's have a look.

1、 Introduction of PVC board and acrylic board

1. Definition of PVC board

The appearance of PVC board material is honeycomb network structure, which is used for surface packaging of various panels, and is used in many industries such as building materials and medicine, of which the building materials industry accounts for a large proportion. PVC can be divided into soft PVC and hard PVC according to hardness, PVC skin foam board and non PVC foam board according to manufacturing process, and PVC transparent board.

PVC board has a long service life, generally not less than 50 years, and has a unique formula design, which can be well applied to various climates. With outstanding waterproof performance and no waterproof layer, it can resist wind and earthquake. It is very reliable in high-rise buildings and coastal areas. Rich color, novel personality, strong acid and alkali resistance, fire protection and heat insulation.

The construction of PVC board is relatively simple, and it can be nailed and sawed directly. It is light, easy to operate and economical. It is one of the materials with light weight and low cost.

2. definition of acrylic plate

Acrylic is a kind of chemical material. Specially treated glass can be combined with aluminum-plastic plate profiles and advanced screen printing to meet the needs of different users.

The transparency of acrylic plate can reach 92/100, which is called "plastic crystal". It has good weather resistance, good surface hardness and gloss, and great processing plasticity. It can be made into various shapes. There are many kinds of plates with rich colors, and the transparency of thick plates is also high. It also has the advantages of light weight, low price and easy forming.

In fact, the difference between the two is related to their characteristics. The service life of PVC board is longer and lighter than that of acrylic board. The impact resistance is 8 times that of acrylic board, so it is relatively simple to use. However, the transparency of acrylic plate is higher than that of PVC. In contrast, the cost of PVC is lower, and the cost of acrylic board is higher.
