DSC Testing for PVC Pipe Gelation Level

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) for PVC Pipe Gelation Measurement

DSC measures the gelation (fusion) level of PVC resin by analyzing heat flow during thermal scanning. Gelation reflects the molecular fusion extent critical to pipe mechanical properties.

Optimal Gelation Range

Optimal gelation levels range from 85% to 95%, correlating with superior long-term strength, ductility, and stiffness. A gelation level of 93% is typically achievable under controlled processing.
