UPVC PRESSURIZED PIPE PROPERTIES

PVC- Polyvinyl Chloride is produced by polymerization of the monomer ( VCM ) of vinyl chloride .

PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is the world's third most common synthetic plastic polymer after polyethylene and polypropylene. PVC is produced in two basic forms as soft PVC with the addition of plasticizer, and hard PVC ( uPVC ) with no plasticizer added.

Elastic modules of UPVC pipes can reach up to 1500-3000 MPa .There are polymer structures with good insulation properties so they can be used in lines requiring medium or low voltage and low frequency insulation.They have high chemical resistance to acids, bases, salts, fats and alcohols and some solvents. They can therefore be used on mains and sewer lines. Linear expansion coefficients are small and have good flame retardant properties. UPVC, a thermoplastic, has a natural insulation that helps reduce condensation formation and resist internal temperature changes for hot and cold liquids. 66% of PVC raw material produced each year is consumed in SI pipe sector. UPVC pressurized pipes are combined in two ways, as sealant and glued join. UPVC pressure pipes are produced at pressures that range from PN 4 and PN 25 pressure classes.
