Effect of PVC plastisol composition and processing conditions on foam expansion and tear strength [PDF]
Hemijska Industrija, 2014 The quality of vinyl floorings depends mainly on the right control of the formation of poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) foam structure. Many process parameters influence the cellular structure and final properties of the PVC foam.

Thermochemistry of Combustion in Polyvinyl Alcohol + Hydroxylammonium Nitrate
Aerospace, 2021 A mixture of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and hydroxylammoniun nitrate (HAN) forms a gummy solid known as a plastisol, which is ionically conducting. When an electrostatic potential of 200 V DC is applied across the plastisol, it ignites.

Observations and models for needle-tissue interactions [PDF]
, 2009 The asymmetry of a bevel-tip needle results in the needle naturally bending when it is inserted into soft tissue. In this study we present a mechanics-based model that calculates the deflection of the needle embedded in an elastic medium.
