Chemical Resistance and Chemical Applications for CPVC Pipe and Fittings
Chlorinated polyvinyl 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. First commercialized in 1959 by Lubrizol Advanced Materials, Inc. (formerly BFGoodrich Performance Materials), it has proven over nearly five decades of use to be a viable piping alternative for a variety of industrial applications in which a high use temperature and excellent resistance to corrosive chemicals are required.
