CPVC plastic (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) is a modified form of uPVC (Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride). The chlorination process enhances its thermal stability, allowing it to withstand higher temperatures—up to 95°C—compared to uPVC’s maximum service temperature of 60°C.
Yes, CPVC is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications and can withstand temperatures up to 95°C. However, prolonged exposure to direct UV light may require protective coatings or shading in some environments to maintain optimal performance.
CPVC can be easily machined using standard tools such as saws, drills, and routers. For welding or joining, specialised CPVC welding rods or solvent cement should be used. Always follow manufacturer guidelines and safety precautions when working with CPVC.
Yes, CPVC plastic can be solvent welded or mechanically joined to other CPVC or uPVC components. However, care should be taken when connecting to other plastics; compatibility testing or appropriate adhesive/connector materials may be required to ensure a secure and durable bond.
