TROVIDUR® PHT PVC-C SHEETS as PRESS SHEETS

made of CORZAN®, mill finish

Trovidur® PHT is post-chlorinated PVC-U for chemical tank construction.

PVC-C has the highest resistance to acids, alkalis and salt solutions of all PVC grades at a continuous service temperature of 85°C.

With an LOI of approx. 65%, PVC-C is extremely self-extinguishing and hardly flammable.

PVC-C pressed sheets are high-quality plastic sheets made from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (PVC-C). They are produced using a special pressing process that results in a homogeneous and dense structure with excellent mechanical properties and high chemical resistance.

PVC-C pressed sheets are known for their excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, bases and solvents. This makes them ideal for use in demanding industrial environments such as the chemical industry, electroplating, food processing and other areas where chemical exposure may occur.

In addition, PVC-C pressed sheets are stable even at elevated temperatures and can withstand temperatures of up to 100°C. This makes them suitable for applications where high temperature resistance is required, such as in exhaust gas purification or in industrial plants.

The smooth surface of the PVC-C press plates facilitates cleaning and maintenance and makes them hygienic and easy to care for. They are available in various thicknesses and sizes to meet the requirements of different applications. From the manufacture of chemical tanks to the lining of electroplating baths and the construction of exhaust gas purification systems, PVC-C pressed sheets offer a reliable and durable solution for a wide range of industrial applications.

Polyvinyl chloride-chlorinated
PVC-C for short , is a special form of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), which is produced by the chlorination of PVC.

Properties of PVC-C:

  • Chemical resistance:
    PVC-C is characterized by excellent chemical resistance, especially to acids, bases and many chemicals. This feature makes it ideal for use in demanding industrial environments.
  • Temperature resistance:
    PVC-C can withstand higher temperatures than conventional PVC (polyvinyl chloride). It remains more stable at higher temperatures (compared to PVC), which makes it suitable for applications in hot water pipes and industrial processes.
  • Fire resistance:
    PVC-C is flame retardant and meets high fire protection requirements. This makes it attractive for use in safety-critical applications.
  • Electrical insulation:
    PVC-C is a good insulator and is used in the electrical industry for the manufacture of electrical components.
  • Mechanical strength:
    PVC-C shows good mechanical strength and is therefore suitable for applications where strength and durability are important.
  • Good processability:
    PVC-C is easy to process and can be formed by various methods such as extrusion, injection molding and compression molding.
 

Applications of PVC-C:

PVC-C is used in various industries for specific applications, including:

  • Chemical industry :
    Pipes, tanks and fittings due to its chemical resistance.
  • Building industry :
    Hot water pipes, industrial piping, ventilation systems and other construction elements.
  • Electrical industry :
    Insulators, electrical enclosures and other components where good electrical insulation is required.
  • Automotive industry :
    Applications where increased temperature resistance and chemical resistance are required.
 

Due to its specific properties, PVC-C is a high-performance material in various technical applications, especially in areas that place high demands on chemical resistance and temperature resistance.

Polyvinyl chloride unplasticized (PVC-U) is a form of polyvinyl chloride that is produced without the addition of plasticizers or other plasticizing substances.

Properties of PVC-U:

  • Hardness and rigidity:
    PVC-U is characterized by its high hardness and rigidity. These properties make it particularly suitable for applications where structural integrity and strength are required.
  • Chemical resistance:
    PVC-U is largely resistant to many chemicals, which makes it suitable for use in various industrial environments. It is particularly resistant to acids, alkalis and other aggressive substances.
  • Temperature resistance:
    PVC-U retains its mechanical properties even at higher temperatures, making it suitable for applications in various temperature ranges.
  • Electrical insulation:
    PVC-U shows good electrical insulation properties, making it suitable for applications in the electrical industry, especially for cable insulation.

  • Flame resistance


    PVC-U is intrinsically flame retardant and can be classified in various fire classes, making it suitable for certain fire protection applications.

  • Workability:
    PVC-U can be formed using various processing methods such as extrusion, injection molding and calendering. This enables the manufacture of a variety of products for different applications.

  • Applications

    :

    PVC-U is often used in the construction industry for pipes, window profiles, doors and other building elements. It is also used in the chemical industry, water supply, electrical industry and other technical applications.

The exact properties of PVC-U may vary depending on the manufacturer and formulation.
It is therefore advisable to refer to the specific technical data sheets and recommendations in order to select the right PVC-U product for a particular application.
