PVCPolyvinyl chloride
PVC is a self-extinguishing material with excellent chemical resistance that is easy to machine. It has high mechanical and tensile strength and can be used from -15℃ to 60℃. It can be bonded and welded, insulates well electrically, absorbs little water and is easy to paint.
- Service temperature
- -15~60℃
- Sheet thickness
- 1~50mm
- Rod diameter
- Φ8~200mm
Features
Good thermal insulation
Insulates better than metals, limiting heat loss from equipment.
Excellent corrosion resistance
Stable against acids, alkalis, salts, oils and fats.
Good flame resistance
The material is self-extinguishing.
Stable mechanical strength
High mechanical strength under cutting, bending and similar loads.
Easy to machine
Can be cut, drilled and otherwise machined, and is easy to bond, weld and paint.
Electrical insulation and low water absorption
Good insulating properties with low water absorption.
