Soft PVC from medical tubes refers to flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) material recovered
from used or surplus
medical tubing, such as IV lines, blood bags, oxygen masks, or catheters. This type of PVC is
highly flexible due to
the use of plasticizers (usually phthalates like DEHP) and is considered a premium-grade
scrap in the recycling
market when clean and free from contamination.
