Repair in the bathroom, toilet, and sometimes and kitchen often begins with the choice of plastic panels. It is universal material which is in the low price range, than its popularity is caused.
Plastic panels is called the material made of polyvinylchloride used for carrying out facing works. The popularity to finishing material was brought by their small weight and structure in which there are such no unhealthy substances of the person as cadmium and asbestos.
Polyvinylchloride is the universal polymer used for production of plastic bottles, water pipes, linoleum, hoses for watering and disposable syringes. The surface of the products made of it turns out dense, not porous. This quality allows to use panel PVC where always it has to be clean, for example, in hospitals.
Panel PVC make for walls at the plants. At the first stage the plastic weight resembling dough superficially is kneaded. Pasty plastic preparation is placed in extruder, taking place through which it gets certain form, passing through special openings.
Characteristic of plastic panels
The panels manufactured of polyvinylchloride easy also have cellular structure. Products begin to burn only after heating to 370 degrees. Even if it will occur, in the course of burning they will allocate much less smoke and toxic agents, than wood analogs.
Plastic panels differ in fine water resistance, and it means that them it is possible to make out safely shower cabins, toilet and bathrooms, other acc«mmodation spaces. Products rather strong are also not capable to pass heat and also any sounds.
Plastic panels from face side, most often, are covered with the drawings imitating natural stone or wood. Pyleottalkivayushchy properties to them are given by the varnish covering which is at the same time protecting from influence of moisture and direct sunshine.
PVC of the panel are easily cut in lengthwise and transverse direction therefore problems with their mounting arise extremely seldom. For connection of parts it is possible to choose one of two methods:
- the "groove crest" allowing to insert into gaps between seams mirror, decorative or relief lacing;
- "groove groove", that is joint in joint therefore the surface turns out uniform.
