Wood grain PVC is considerably easier on the eye but after a decade the pigment will migrate and turn a greyish colour. |
There is some evidence that the phthalates in PVC can migrate into food, especially if the food is fatty or hot. |
One advantage of PVC is that, unlike most transparent materials, it is soft. |
This increases the current load in wiring, and the PVC insulation melts, leading to short circuits. |
Far gone are the days of PVC where in order to keep dry, you would need to be swathed in restrictive, heavy, and inflexible plastic rain slickers. |
Pots were PVC cylinders, 20 cm diameter and 50 cm depth, sealed at the bottom. |
