Chemical resistance and characteristics

Chemical resistance

Le PVC-U rigide résiste aux acides dilués et concentrés (sauf HNO3 fumant), aux bases et solutions salines. Sensible aux solvants aromatiques, THF, DMF et cétones. Le CPVC (version chlorée) offre une meilleure tenue thermique et chimique.

Recommended applications

  • Tuyaux et raccords eau/gaz, menuiseries et profilés, câbles et gaines électriques, emballages rigides, panneaux publicitaires, sols et revêtements, équipements médicaux (poches, tubulures)
