More and more these high temperature plastics are taking the stage because they are light versatile alternatives to metal ceramics and older generation polymers.
When choosing a heat resistant plastic it is important to pick the best material for the job required in order to avoid costly damages.
Rigid sometimes abbreviated as rpvc and flexible.
Pvc is the world s third most widely produced synthetic plastic polymer after polyethylene and polypropylene about 40 million tons of pvc are produced each year.
Cpvc chlorinated polyvinyl chloride material has comparable corrosion resistance to pvc pipe yet it is suitable for handling corrosive material at temperatures 40 f to 60 f higher than pvc.
The difference between pvc and upvc pipes is that upvc does not contain the plasticizers that make pvc flexible.

Schedule 80 pipe can be used with threaded and socket joints while schedule 40 pipe is not recommended for threading.
Cpvc is commonly specified as pipe fittings and valves where heat pressure and chemical resistance are concerns.
The ease of installation and corrosion resistance makes it a valuable replacement to alternative materials.
Pressure ratings pressure ratings of pipes and tubes and their fittings carbon steel stainless steel plastic copper and more.
This makes upvc pipes more rigid more resistant to chemical corrosion and smoother on the inside for better water flow.
