Reaction of ferrocenylphenylcarbinol with ethereal solution of boron trifluoride in dichloride methane formed the relevant ferrocenylphenylmethyl carbocation.
These are combined in a chemical reaction to create ethylene dichloride, which is turned into a gas, and then, through a process called " polymerization" , it becomes a fine, white powder called polyvinyl chloride, or PVC.
