PVDC
Polyvinylidene Chloride (Abbreviation: PVDC) is a homopolymer of vinylidene chloride. It is a remarkable barrier against water, oxygen and aromas. It has a superior chemical resistance to alkalies and acids, is insoluble in oil and organic solvents, has very low moisture regain and is impervious to mold, bacteria, and insects. But it is soluble in polar solvents.
