The raw materials for PVC are derived from salt(57%) and oil(43%). The electrolysis of the salt water produces chlorine, this combined with ethylene (from oil) to form vinyl chloride monomer (VCM). Molecules of VCM are polymerized to make PVC resin. Appropriate additives are incorporated to make a customized PVC compound.
