Polyvinylchloride - Environmental Aspects of a Common Plastic - W. Totsch, H. Gaensslen (Elsevier, 1992).pdf

This paper combines data on production, on processing and formulating, on application, on the waste stream and on the possibilities for recycling polyvinyl chloride insofar as such data has relevance for an assessment of environmental impact.

This book is based on work carried out at the Fraunhofer Institute for Systems Technology and Innovations Research and particularly on a report drawn up on the order of the Research Centre Julich
