Be aware of the differences between piping
Systems The market for polyvinyl-chloride (PVC)
pipes found in India is expanding exponentially.
In 2023, the worth of this industry is predicted
to surpass 6220 million, with the CAGR for the
period 2016-2023 being around the 10.3 percent
threshold. Chlorinated PVC pipe (CPVC pipe) and
unplasticised PVC pipe (UPVC pipe) are two very
sought-after types made of PVC fittings and
pipes. In this article, we'll take a into
consideration the major distinctions between the
UPVC pipes as well as CPVC pipes Raw
Material Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride (UPVC)
is a hard and versatile material that resists
numerous chemicals. UPVC is a durable sinewy,
clear, and tough-wearing material. it is
extremely resistant to the effects of moisture,
the atmosphere and chemicals. It also possess
excellent electrical properties and is low in
fire-hazard. Pipes and fittings made from UPVC
can be used for installation both in and out of
soil. Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chromide (CPVC) is
thermoplastic produced
through the chlorination process of polyvinyl
chloride.

It is indestructible and has a long duration of
usage. In actual fact, CPVC Pipes are
additionally chlorinated PVC. The chlorine
bonding to the carbon atoms of the chlorinated
PVC has a chlorine content of 65 to 67 percent
which is about 77 greater than UPVC. Because of
the greater levels of chlorine, the material
exhibits outstanding chemical resistance,
particularly to alkalis, acids, and salts. It is
extremely suitable for use for the chemical
process industry. The temperature range that it
can be used in is from -40degC up to 95degC. CPVC
is a highly useful, structurally strong and
durable plastic that is used in the transport of
media in industrial applications that have an
operating temperature that can reach between 95
and 95 degrees Celsius. Manufacturing
Process The polymer (vinyl chloride) is
manufactured using natural gas or petroleum, as
well as salt treatment. The chlorine that is used
for the production of PVC is separate from the
kitchen salt (50 percent from the mass of PVC
comes from salts). The string molecular reactions
of the chemical (NaCl) are separated in two
parts. Na as well as Cl-ions can be formed.

The ions that are formed Cl react with acetylene
or ethylene and the monomer of vinyl chloride is
created. The monomer of vinyl chloride is then
placed under pressure and inside a polymerization
unit that is stocked with catalysts and water to
aid in the polymerization process that is heated
which is the chemical process through where the
poly (vinyl chloride) is produced. UPVC is PVC
with no the use of plasticizers (they are not
utilized in the production process). CPVC is a
thermoplastic material made by the chlorination
process of polyvinylchloride. Mechanical
Characteristics UPVC is a strong transparent,
tough hard-wearing, durable and high strength
materials. CPVC can be more flexible. The
mechanical characteristics at the temperature of
room temperature for CPVC is comparable to that
of UPVC. CPVC is also an substance that is strong
mechanically. For CPVC these characteristics
remain at more extreme temperatures.

Chemical Properties The variety in UPVC and CPVC
Pipes Suppliers by well- known suppliers
generally have superior resistance properties.
They are typically unaffected by corrosive
liquids or strong acids, chemicals, salts as well
as other materials. For UPVC pipes the chemical
characteristics remain unaffected up to the
temperature of a certain point (up to (60degC
60-65degC) however CPVC pipes are protected in
much higher temperatures , too. Extreme
Temperatures, with the ability to withstand The
process of chlorination employed in the
production of CPVC pipe makes them able to
withstand extremely high and low temperatures.
Fluids with temperatures that exceed 90degC are
able to flow through these pipes without causing
any harm. UPVC pipes don't contain any
plasticizers - hence they do not suit transfer
for hot liquids. It is not advised to make use of
UPVC pipes for the transfer of hot water
temperatures that exceed 55 degrees Celsius.

Drinking-Water Transmission Recyclability and the
robust anti-chemical resistance UPVCpipes have
many advantages. They are therefore commonly
employed for the transmission of drinking water
that has greater flexibility (and obviously the
lead-free assurance). CPVC pipes have become a
preferred option for safe and safe drinking water
transmission , as well. UPVC pipes are, however
are often utilized for drainage pipe solutions
and other areas where chemical resistance is
essential. UV Resistance Both UPVC pipes as
well as CPVC pipes are equipped with strong
UV-resistant characteristics. However, the higher
rigidity and less maintenance demands of UPVC
pipes makes them ideal for outdoor use (when
exposed to extreme weather conditions, there's
little wear and tear). Both kinds of pipes are
able to be handled. Longevity and Service
Life The ability that a CPVC pipe for overcoming
the effects of degradation (particularly when
heated to
temperatures that are extremely high) is
significantly
6
greater than UPVC pipes. Because the risks of
physical and chemical harm are significantly
less, CPVC pipes are expected to last for a
longer amount of time. The life span is also
high. The durability of UPVC pipes is extremely
high too and is dependent on the quality of the
raw material and also those filler components.
The increased stiffness of the pipes puts the
possibility of breaking in the event that they
are not maintained correctly. Low Price
Factor The best PVC pipe makers typically offer
an entire range of chlorinated (CPVC) and
unplasticized (UPVC) pipes within their range. To
provide the best value to the buyers the
companies provide both kinds of high- quality
pipes - with improved features, greater
durability and design - all at affordable
prices. Customers, therefore need not overspend
to purchase their UPVC as well as CPVC pipes they
require. It is important to remember that it's
not about the fact that UPVC pipes are superior
to CPVC pipes (or in reverse). Each type has its
own advantages and, when procured from a
reputable pipes and fittings
manufacturer, can add value to the various
7
applications. The most important thing is
understanding the differences between the two
categories, and then selecting the one that meets
the requirements of the base most
effectively. Installation Ease UPVC as well as
CPVC pipes produced by most reputable suppliers
are usually lightweight and easily transportable
from one place to the next. Installation is
simple and is made easy with the aid by UPVC
solvent cements as well as CPVC solvent cements.
But, as CPVC pipes are more flexible and
bendability, they are more often used to
transport drinking water. Applications Both
CPVC or UPVC pipes are utilized in a variety of
applications - residential and commercial
structures as well as industrial and public
utilities, there are some key distinctions in the
general application of both. For instance, CPVC
pipes from Skipper Pipes (made using the strong
Dura stream-related compound) are able to be
utilized for water plant applications (RO and DM)
as well being used in the solar heating lines.
Skipper Pipes' UPVC pipes however are widely used
in gravity
irrigation, lifts systems, and other applications.
