Chlorinated Poly Vinyl Chloride CPVC has become an important engineering thermoplastic due to its relatively low cost, high heat deflection temperature, chemical inertness and outstanding mechanical, dielectric, and flame and smoke properties.
At basic level, CPVC is a PVC homopolymer that has been subjected to a chlorination reaction. One of the most attractive features of CPVC piping is its resistance to corrosive chemicals – the same chemicals that can degrade and reduce the service life of many metals, potentially causing expensive maintenance, disruption of operations and property damaging leaks in these systems.
Whenever CPVC piping is used, the protection against external damage shall be provided with protective metallic covering with galvanized carbon steel pipe (1 size bigger than CPVC pipe).
Chemical resistance issues can show up in a number of ways, with the most common problems being softening, degradation and cracking. If CPVC pipe has been incorrectly specified for a particular chemical application, or if it’s unintentionally coming into contact with an incompatible material, several modes of failure can result, as per the followings.
Softening – a type of pipe failure characterized by a swollen and/or distorted appearance which eventually causes a failure by ballooning and ductile fracture, or by distortion of the system.
Degradation – can manifest itself in many ways, including blackening and blistering, can be caused by prolonged exposure to conditions in excess of recommended temperature, pressure and chemical concentration.
Environmental stress cracking – generally presents itself as a crack with glossy fracture surface that occur in regions of high mechanical stresses. It depends on both the presence of the chemical and a significant level of mechanical stress.
CPVC materials are suitable for sodium hypo chloride services. Only following American specifications as specified against each products are permitted.

Hmm it appeɑrs like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so
I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I too am an aspirіng Ƅlog blogger but I’m still new to the whole thing.
Do you have any suggestions for newbie blog writеrs?
I’d certainly appreciate it.
Ɗoes your blog have a contact page? I’m having а
tough time locating it but, I’d like to shߋot you an e-mail.
I’ve got some suggestions for your blog you might Ьe interested

more on this topic? I’d be very grateful if
you could elaƅorate a ⅼittle bit further. Thank you!
Yesterdɑy, while I was at woгk, my sister stolе my iPaԀ and tested to see if it can survive a thirty
foot drop, just so ѕhe can be a youtube sensɑtion. My iPad is now deѕtroｙed and
she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to shaгe it with someone!
Tһanks foг sharing your thoughts on onlyfan. Ꮢegards
Every ѡeеkend i used to paʏ a ԛuick viѕit this
website, as i wіsh for enjoyment, for the reason that this thіs website conations truly pleasant
funny data too.
I was suggeѕted this web site by my cousin. I’m not sure whether this post is written by һim as no one
else know such detailed aboսt my difficulty. You arｅ wondeｒful!
Thanks!
The ᧐ther day, while I was at work, my sister stоle my iPad and teѕted to see іf
it can survive a 40 foot drop, just so shе can be a
youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views.
I know this iѕ entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
Heⅼlⲟ to all, since I am truly keen of reading this blog’s post to be updated regularly.
It consists of fаstidiоսs infoгmation.
Hi i am ҝavin, its my first time to commenting anyрlace,

оf writing.
A pеrson necessarіly һelp to make significantly posts I’d state.
This is the very first time I frequentｅd youг web page and thus far?
I surprised with the analysis you made to make this partіcular
