Plastochem CPVC Solvent Cement

Plastochem CPVC Solvent Cement – Medium (Yellow)

For CPVC Pipe & Fitting Systems of potable water, residential & industrial plumbing, drain, hot & cold water upto 82°C

Plastochem CPVC Solvent Cement is a type of adhesive specifically designed for joining CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) pipes and fittings. CPVC is a thermoplastic material known for its ability to handle higher temperatures and greater pressure compared to standard PVC. CPVC solvent cement shares many similarities with PVC solvent cement but is formulated to work specifically with CPVC materials. Here are some key aspects of CPVC solvent cement:

Chemical Composition: Plastochem CPVC solvent cement typically contains a mixture of solvents and CPVC resin. The solvents help soften the CPVC material, allowing it to fuse together when the solvent evaporates, creating a strong bond.
High-Temperature Resistance: Plastochem CPVC solvent cement is designed to withstand higher temperatures compared to PVC solvent cement, making it suitable for hot water applications such as in residential and commercial plumbing systems.
Pressure Resistance: Plastochem CPVC pipes and fittings joined with solvent cement can handle greater pressure than standard PVC, making them suitable for applications where higher pressure is expected, such as in industrial settings or fire sprinkler systems.
Compatibility: CPVC solvent cement is compatible with CPVC pipes and fittings of the same size and schedule. It’s important to use solvent cement specifically formulated for CPVC to ensure proper adhesion and compatibility.
Installation: Plastochem CPVC solvent cement is applied to the surfaces of the CPVC pipes and fittings to be joined. The solvent softens the material, allowing the pieces to be pressed together, forming a strong bond. The joint sets quickly, allowing for efficient installation.
Water and Chemical Resistance: CPVC solvent cement creates watertight seals that are resistant to corrosion and chemical degradation, ensuring long-term durability and reliability of the joined CPVC components.
