How to quickly identify whether PVC flooring is brand new or recycled?
全新的PVC材料是由PVC树脂原料加工而成；
The brand new PVC material is processed from PVC resin raw materials;
再生料(回收材料)是工业上回收的聚氯乙烯成品。再生料的特性会比全新材料差，因为再生料经过高温加工后，脆性会增加，韧性会降低，杂质会增加。
Recycled materials (recycled materials) are industrial recycled PVC products. The characteristics of recycled materials will be worse than those of new materials, because after high-temperature processing, the brittleness of recycled materials will increase, the toughness will decrease, and impurities will increase.
PVC全新材料与再生材料的主要区别
The main differences between new PVC materials and recycled materials
1、由于原材料来源不确定，PVC再生材料可能会有超标的限制；新材料PVC的配方是可控的，重金属的含量可以严格控制在行业规定的范围内。
Due to the uncertainty of the source of raw materials, PVC recycled materials may have limitations exceeding the standard; The formula of the new material PVC is controllable, and the content of heavy metals can be strictly controlled within the industry regulations.
2、由于原料颜色多样化，PVC再生材料在配色过程中难以改变；而且全新的PVC底色是原色，可以用色粉做成想要的颜色。
Due to the diversity of raw material colors, PVC recycled materials are difficult to change during the color matching process; And the brand new PVC base color is the original color, which can be made into the desired color with toner.
3、PVC再生材料经过熔化和再加工，原材料已经使用了一段时间。在这个过程中，PVC的硬度、柔韧性等物理性能会明显降低。
The recycled PVC material has been melted and reprocessed, and the raw material has been in use for some time. During this process, the physical properties such as hardness and flexibility of PVC will significantly decrease.
4、PVC再生料主要采用废品回收再加工的方式，成本较低。但是PVC的新材料一般都是从厂家买的，所以价格会比较高。
PVC recycled materials mainly adopt the method of waste recycling and reprocessing, with lower costs. However, new materials for PVC are generally purchased from manufacturers, so the price will be relatively high.
