Plastochem uPVC Solvent Cement

Plastochem uPVC Solvent Cement is a type of adhesive used for joining uPVC pipes and fittings. uPVC is a rigid and durable material commonly used in plumbing and construction due to its resistance to corrosion, chemical degradation, and low maintenance requirements. uPVC solvent cement functions similarly to PVC and CPVC solvent cements but is specifically formulated for uPVC materials. Here are some key features of uPVC solvent cement:

  1. Chemical Composition: Plastochem uPVC solvent cement typically contains a mixture of solvents and uPVC resin. The solvents help soften the uPVC material, allowing it to fuse together when the solvent evaporates, creating a strong bond.
  2. Rigid and Durable Bonds: Plastochem uPVC solvent cement creates rigid and durable bonds between uPVC pipes and fittings, ensuring leak-free connections that can withstand various pressures and environmental conditions.
  3. Easy Application: Plastochem uPVC solvent cement is easy to apply. It is typically brushed onto the surfaces of the uPVC pipes and fittings to be joined, and the pieces are then pressed together to form a tight bond.
  4. Quick Setting: Plastochem uPVC solvent cement sets quickly, allowing for efficient assembly of uPVC plumbing systems without long waiting times. However, it’s important to allow adequate time for the solvent to cure fully for optimal strength and performance.
  5. Chemical Resistance: Plastochem uPVC solvent cement creates joints that are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, making it suitable for various applications where exposure to corrosive substances may occur.
  6. Water Tightness: The bonds formed by uPVC solvent cement are watertight, preventing leaks and ensuring the integrity of the plumbing system.
  7. Longevity: Properly applied uPVC solvent cement joints can provide long-term reliability and durability, contributing to the longevity of the uPVC plumbing system.
