Architectural Membrane PVC Fabric

-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --

Product Detailed Description

This material is a specialized, high-performance PVC-coated fabric designed for use as a structural membrane in lightweight, tensile architecture. It features an exceptionally high-tenacity, low-wick polyester base scrim (typically 1500D to 2500D) to manage extreme stress loads and maintain structural integrity over large spans. The coating is formulated with a robust PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) topcoat, which provides superior protection against UV degradation, self-cleaning properties, and resistance to environmental pollutants. This material is specified for structures demanding long lifespan and minimal maintenance.

Introduction & Company Profile

The Architectural Membrane PVC Fabric is a high-end, structural material from the Specialty Coated Fabrics line of the Zhejiang MSD Group Share Co., Ltd. Since 2002, our Haining City, Zhejiang, facility has committed to delivering materials that meet the demanding aesthetic and performance criteria of modern tensile architecture.

This material is the technical choice for architects, engineers, and fabricators of long-span, permanent fabric structures.

Material Selection Guide

Selection requires close collaboration with structural engineers and compliance officers to meet load, fire, and lifespan requirements.

  • Structural Load: The required tensile strength must match the maximum anticipated wind and snow load for the installation region.

  • Topcoat Specification: For maximum lifespan and lowest maintenance, specify a full PVDF topcoat. Acrylic is a more economical choice for shorter lifespans.

  • Light Transmission: Choose between opaque (total sun block) and translucent (natural light diffusion) based on the building's internal lighting needs.

Manufacturing and Tailoring

Production involves multi-stage coating and specialized topcoat application for superior surface performance.

  • Weave Optimization: The base scrim is often heat-set to reduce pre-stress and limit initial fabric creep under structural load.

  • Topcoat Bonding: The PVDF is applied via a specialized finishing process that ensures a permanent chemical bond to the PVC layer, essential for self-cleaning efficacy.

  • QC Documentation: Full test reports for tensile strength, FR compliance, and topcoat composition are provided for architectural project submission.

Deployment FAQ

  • Q: Is it possible to print logos or graphics on the PVDF-coated surface?

    A: Yes, but the PVDF coat requires specialized surface preparation and high-adhesion inks (typically UV-curable) due to its highly inert, non-stick properties.

  • Q: How are large panels joined in the field?

    A: Large membrane sections are joined using high-frequency (HF) welding or industrial hot air welding, creating seams with strength exceeding the base material's tensile specification.
