This study seeks to substitute fumed silica for chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) within a rigid PVC formulation intended for profile extrusion such as doors and window frames. The effect of fumed silica on both mechanical (tensile and impact) and thermal (Vicat point, HDT, and linear thermal expansion coefficient) properties were investigated. Five rigid PVC formulations were prepared, including a reference one (F1), then F1 with CPE, F1 with untreated silica, F1 with heat treated silica, and finally F1 with dried silica and a coupling agent. The effect of CPE on mechanical properties was very modest. On the other hand, CPE showed its inefficiency, in that HDT and Vicat point were decreased. Heat treated silica showed the greatest improvement in both mechanical and thermal properties. Untreated silica showed a small effect on both properties. Finally, the incorporation of coupling agent gave considerable improvement in both mechanical and thermal properties.
