Plastic (PVC) density and calculation basis

Plastic (PVC) is represented in this table by a fixed reference density of 1380 kg/m^3, equivalent to 1.38 g/cm^3. Representative rigid PVC density.

At this fixed reference, 1 liter of Plastic (PVC) corresponds to 1.38 kg, while 1 kg corresponds to 0.724638 liters. Its table density is 38.4% higher than the 997 kg/m^3 water reference used in this dataset.

Among the 4 fixed table records labeled Polymers, the nearest density to Plastic (PVC) is Plastic (PET) at 1370 kg/m^3: an absolute difference of 10 kg/m^3 (0.7% relative to Plastic (PVC)). 3 records have a lower fixed density and 0 have a higher one. The observed range in this labeled group is Plastic (HDPE) at 950 kg/m^3 to Plastic (PVC) at 1380 kg/m^3. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the materials are interchangeable.

For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.719791 lb per cup (US).

The fixed value supports repeatable calculations but is not a batch, grade, supplier, or laboratory specification. Use a measured or certified density when those conditions control the result.
