Cpvc Industrial Piping System
Description: Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) has become an important engineering thermoplastic due to its relatively low cost, high glass transition temperature, high heat distortion temperature, chemical inertness, and outstanding mechanical, dielectric, and flame and smoke properties. CPVC has proven its value in a variety of industrial applications in which a high temperature and excellent resistance to corrosive chemicals are desirable. Besides pipe and fittings, many other industrial fluid-handling products are available in CPVC systems including pumps, valves, strainers, tower packing, ducts, as well as sheets for fabrication of tanks, ducts, and tank lining. Major advantages of CPVC industrial piping system are the internal and external corrosion resistance, immunity to galvanic or electrolytic corrosion, chemical resistance, withstanding temperature up to 93°C, higher pressure bearing capacity, low thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion as well as easy and low installation costs. Other factors are low friction loss, fire resistance, high mechanical strength, and leak proof joints. Being maintenance free, long life performance is assured.
