Specification

Description
Vinylidene chloride, stabilized appears as a clear colorless liquid with a chloroform-like odor. Flash point 0°F. Boiling point 99°F. Denser (at 10.1 lb / gal) than water and insoluble in water. Hence sinks in water. May polymerize exothermically if heated or contaminated. If the polymerization takes place inside a container, the container may rupture violently. Vapors heavier than air.;Liquid;VOLATILE COLOURLESS LIQUID WITH CHARACTERISTIC ODOUR.;Colorless liquid or gas (above 89°F) with a mild, sweet, chloroform-like odor.;Colorless liquid or gas (above 89°F) with a mild, sweet, chloroform-like odor.

Application
Vinylidene chloride latex serves a crucial purpose in modern industrial applications due to its unique properties derived from copolymerization with other vinyl monomers, such as vinyl chloride. This copolymerization process enhances the material's usability by reducing molecular regularity, thus lowering the softening point and allowing for effective solubility in selective solvents like ethers and ketones, which is otherwise not possible with the homopolymer. As a result, vinylidene chloride latex copolymers find extensive use in producing packaging films admired for their superior clarity, toughness, and low permeability to moisture and gases. These films are typically produced via extrusion and biaxial stretching techniques. Moreover, the copolymers are employed as coatings for cellophane, paper, and polyethylene, offering excellent moisture and gas impermeability along with heat sealability. Additionally, they are used in the manufacturing of durable filaments suitable for applications demanding high tensile strength and chemical resistance, such as in car upholstery and garden chair fabrics. The versatility of vinylidene chloride latex extends to its applications in molding and extrusion resins, multilayer films, lacquer resins, and as a protective matrix in chemical processing pipelines.
