Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has toxic chemicals, a popular thermoplastic that is high in chlorine, up to 57 percent. A white, odorless and solid plastic that is brittle and can be found in the market as granules or a white powder. It is usually available in powder form, and its high resistance to oxidation and degradation allows it to be stored for a long time.
PVS plastic can be found in flavoring bottles, teething rings, toys, shower curtains, window cleaners and detergent bottles, shampoo bottles, cooking oil bottles, clear food packaging, wire sheathing, medical equipment, siding, windows and plumbing turn up. This plastic carries the risk of releasing toxic breakdown products such as phthalates into food and beverages, and the manufacture of PVC is known to release highly toxic dioxins into the environment.
Dioxins are formed when PVC is burned through waste incineration, car or household fires. Dioxins are known human carcinogens and persistent organic pollutants, and are considered one of the most toxic chemicals.
