PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) is extracted from the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer. We can classify PVC into two large groups, rigid PVC and flexible PVC.

Rigid: used for the construction of tubes, pipes, containers, tool accessories, parts of parts, blinds, windows, etc.
Flexible: Corrugated tube, traffic signs as cones. irrigation hoses, curtains for refrigerators, footwear, medicine, etc.

This material begins to soften at 80 ° C and melt at 140 ° C. Thanks to these and other properties, PVC is a recyclable material.

Among the main characteristics of PVC we find:

• Different degree of hardness.
• Waterproof.
• It does not corrode.
• It is moldable if it is subjected to high temperatures.
• Good electrical insulator.
• It is a very resistant material.
• Stable and inert.
• Good mechanical and impact resistance.
• High resistance to abrasion.
• Strong and lightweight.
• Good thermal insulation.
• It is odorless, tasteless and harmless.

A pantograph is based on the movement of several rods from a fixed point. In the present case, it is widely used for photography, to place lighting from roof rails. From a dry movement can set the pantograph to the desired extent. In the picture we showed you a classic configuration of pantographs on a study.
