TL;DR Summary
In the attached video, you can see how an archimedes turbine has been built. I just want to know what kind of material is used to build the fins mainly.

After seeing this video, I have decided to make a homemade version of this machine. The axle and other parts can be taken care easily, but I want to know what kind of material is being used to make the blades of this turbine. These part is the most important part while making the turbine.

Polyvinylchloride.

(as stated in a 3 second pop-up at the bottom of the screen @0:37 thru 0:39. There are other pop-ups later in the video.)

A few have already asked, but the youtuber hasn't replied at all.
