A review of the compounding requirements for producing flexible PVC with quite satisfactory outdoor life is presented. Testing criteria and the importance of incorporated additives of specific types are reviewed. Data on multi‐location outdoor weathering are shown. The prime importance of thickness and additive migration is proposed.
