PCB 1260 Use and Manufacturing

Secondary plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride; in polyester resins to increase strength of fiberglass; varnish formulations to improve water and alkali resistance; as an insulator fluid for electric condensers and as an additive in very high pressure lubricants. In fluorescent and highintensity discharge ballasts manufactured prior to 1979 (U.S. EPA, 1998).
Also used in wire or cable coatings; impregnants in cotton and asbestos braided insulation; coating on glass air filter pads, meta
