NIVAC 20 and 30 are two types of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resins, commonly used in the production of a variety of plastic and rubber products. PVC is often used in the production of construction materials, medical products, electrical insulation, and various consumer goods.
When rubber is exposed to NIVAC resins, the most common form of failure is an increased rate of oxidation, leading to premature aging and a decrease in performance. Additionally, NIVAC resins can cause swelling in the rubber, leading to cracks and leaks. Furthermore, the resins can cause embrittlement, leading to cracking and eventual failure of the rubber product.
