Vinyl resins are synthetic materials that have been used since 1930 in industrial manufacturing. They are sold under trade names such as Vinylite [Union Carbide Corp.] The two principal vinyl [p. 51] resins that have been used by artists are polyvinyl acetate and polyvinyl chloride-acetate [see section on synthetic resin paints].
