Exclusive formula from TMI LLC improves PVC’s workability

Published On: August 22, 2013

TMI LLC, Pittsburgh, Pa., has engineered a solution for the difficulties PVC film’s natural tackiness can cause manufacturers. The need for easy PVC separation, folding and unfolding pushed TMI to develop their exclusive Low Cohesion (LC) PVC formula.

PVC film has a natural tendency to stick to itself, which can be useful for providing a seal on a strip door, but can cause problems in applications that require constant folding, unrolling or separation. It was with these problems in mind that manufacturers approached TMI, a PVC manufacturer and extruder. TMI then modified the chemistry of its Premium Grade PVC Film to enhance workability, resulting in a new low-cohesion PVC film formula.
