This paper describes the results of the dropped dart impact test, the Izod impact test, and the falling weight test on several PVC profiles, extruded at various melt temperatures. Impact strength of the PVC profiles is then correlated to practical toughness of the PVC profiles, such as cutting, punching, and general abuse.
