With strong structural integrity and the ability to withstand environmental stressors, these polymers provide a reliable and cost-effective solution for high-performance material needs in industrial and commercial applications. Their adaptable nature makes them ideal for diverse applications that demand resilient and long-lasting materials.

Introduction 

The Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, through the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, issued the Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Homopolymers (Quality Control) Order, 2024 on February 26, 2024, mandating BIS certification for PVC Homopolymers. This order was further amended on August 23, 2024, under the Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Homopolymers (Quality Control) Amendment Order, 2024, reinforcing the necessity for BIS compliance. BIS certification is now mandatory for manufacturers to apply the ISI mark, confirming compliance with Indian Standard IS 17658:2021. This regulatory requirement ensures that all PVC Homopolymers sold in the Indian market meet standardized quality and safety measures, thereby protecting consumer interests and promoting a dependable supply of high-quality polymers.

Why is BIS Certification Necessary for Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Homopolymers? 

BIS certification for PVC Homopolymers is essential to uphold strict quality and safety standards, as mandated by the Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Homopolymers (Quality Control) Order, 2024, and its subsequent amendment. This certification ensures that the polymers conform to Indian Standard IS 17658:2021, covering quality parameters critical to maintaining durability, chemical resistance, and safety in various applications. The Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016, mandates penalties for non-compliance, underscoring the certification’s importance. BIS certification enables manufacturers to comply with regulations, while consumers gain assurance of consistent quality, fostering trust in PVC Homopolymers available in the market.

Overview of Indian Standard IS 17658:2021 

Indian Standard IS 17658:2021 sets the requirements for PVC Homopolymers, focusing on quality parameters like thermal stability, tensile strength, and chemical resistance. This standard is vital for ensuring that the polymers meet industry-specific performance and durability needs, making them suitable for diverse applications in construction, automotive, and electronics. The Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) Homopolymers (Quality Control) Order, 2024, and its amendment enforce compliance with this standard via mandatory BIS certification. Through rigorous testing and quality assessments, IS 17658:2021 assures the consistent quality of PVC Homopolymers, thereby supporting reliable and safe material applications across various sectors in India.
