General Info
CPVC shares most of the features and properties of its close relative, PVC with improved chemical resistance and higher operating temperature of 200 F. It is also readily workable, including machining, welding, and forming. Because of its excellent corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures, CPVC is ideally suited for self-supporting constructions where temperatures up to 200°F (93°C) are present. The ability to bend, shape, and weld CPVC enables its use in a wide variety of process application.
