What is the difference between PE tarpaulin and PVC tarpaulin

Many people don't know the difference between PE tarpaulin and PVC tarpaulin. Literally speaking, PE and PVC are definitely not the same. The following explains the difference between these two types of tarpaulins in essence.

PE tarpaulin: The chemical name of PE is polyethylene, which is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic material, which is used to make PE tarpaulin. So what are the characteristics of PE? PE is odorless, non-toxic, feels like wax, has excellent low temperature resistance, good water absorption, good electrical insulation performance, can be used normally at -70 to -100 degrees Celsius, and has good chemical stability. The production of PE tarpaulin generally uses HDPE (high-density polyethylene). This material has a higher temperature, hardness, mechanical strength and chemical resistance. Polyethylene is suitable for hollow blow molding, injection molding and extrusion of various products (hard), such as various containers, nets, and straps, and can be used as cable coatings, pipes, profiles, sheets, etc.

PVC tarpaulin is a plastic-coated high-strength polyester waterproof cloth, which is based on high-strength polyester canvas, coated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) paste resin, and added with speed-increasing anti-mold agent, anti-aging agent, antistatic agent, etc. A kind of chemical additives, plasticized at high temperature. It has the properties of waterproof, mildew, cold resistance, aging resistance, anti-static, etc.; and the breaking strength, tear elongation, tear strength of this product are much better than traditional tarpaulin; the product appearance is gorgeous and colorful, which is pleasing to the eye. The surface is specially treated for anti-slip effect. It is an internationally popular waterproof cloth, and the width is extra large, reaching 2 meters wide. When processing the finished product, it can reduce the seam and improve the quality. It can be heat-sealed and spliced to avoid the worry of sewing pinholes. . And can produce products with different functions, different colors, and different thicknesses according to user needs.
