What is the PVC pipe fitting?

Answer:

PVC pipe (PVC-U pipe) rigid PVC pipe is made of PVC resin and stabilizer, lubricant and so on. It is extruded and formed by hot pressing method. It is the earliest plastic pipe to be developed and applied. PVC-U pipes are corrosion resistant, easy to adhere, low in price and hard in texture, but because of the exudation of PVC-U monomers and additives, they are only suitable for the feed water system with a temperature of not more than 45 DEG C. Plastic pipes are used to transport potable water, waste water, chemicals, heating and cooling fluids, foodstuffs, ultrapure liquids, slurries, gases, compressed air, and vacuum systems.
PVC (full name Polyvinylchlorid) for polyvinyl chloride, in addition to other ingredients to enhance its heat resistance, toughness, ductility and so on. The top layer of this surface film is lacquer, the main component is polyvinyl chloride, and the bottom layer is coated with adhesive. It is a very popular, popular and widely used synthetic material in the world today. Its global usage ranks second in various synthetic materials. According to statistics, only in 1995 a year, PVC production in Europe, there are about five million tons, while its consumption is five million and three hundred thousand tons. In Germany, PVC production and consumption averaged one million and four hundred thousand tons.
