CPVC
Product full identity:
Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride
CPVC is rated self-extinguishing and has high rigidity, strength and hardness at increased temperatures. Also CPVC can be chemically bonded and thermo-welded. Compared to uPVC, this material boasts increased dimensional stability up to 95°C, with excellent chemical resistance and high impact strength.
Properties
- Temperature resistance to 85°C
- Fire rating - self extinguishing
- Excellent chemical resistance
- High mechanical and tensile strength
- Easily glued and weldable.
Applications
- Chemical
- Pharmaceutical
Forms
- Sheet
- Rod
