General characteristics of PVDF Pipe Systems
In India, Petron Thermoplast is a well-known supplier of PVDF pipe components with extensive knowledge of plastic pipelines. A strict standard of quality underpins all of our goods and services. We also provide the accessories required for constructing conduits and pipes and extruded fittings for heated tool socket welding. Flanges, seals, and fixing supplies complete our offering.
The information below was carefully and with the greatest knowledge gathered. Despite this, assuming liability based on the provided information is impossible.
Semi-crystalline polyvinylidene fluoride is a substance. PVDF is a predestined material for the construction of plastic pipelines due to its mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and particularly its high rigidity, stability, and outstanding resistance, even under the influence of temperatures around 0°C.
Due to the high proportion of flour (59%) in the material, the long-term rupture strength is exceptionally strong and has a high distortion temperature. PVDF demonstrates its true advantages in higher temperatures coupled with excellent chemical resistance.
Chemical sustainability
PVDF is resistant to most inorganic acids and salts, even at high temperatures and concentrations. Additionally, it is resistant to organic acids, alcohols, and aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. PVDF expands in strong polar solvents like ketone or esters. Alkali metals, for instance, and strong basic amines are not resistant to PVDF.
Numerous variables affect chemical resistance, including operating temperature, pressure, concentration, and other influences. You can check our list of resistances for information on the persistence of PP against specific chemicals or get in touch with our product management.
PVDF application temperature and pressure range
PVDF can be used in temperatures as high as 140°C. We refer to the graph under the “ Pressure-Temperature-Graph “ section when discussing the pressure capacity of tubes and fittings. Please take note of the additional remarks regarding the corresponding accouterment for more information on the load-bearing capacity of the accouterments.
Electrical Attributes
A thermoplastic with exceptional isolation qualities is PVDF. In circumstances where there is a risk of inflammation or explosion, PVDF cannot be used due to the potential static electricity that could result.
Lightweight
Due to its lightweight, handling is made simpler, and new application areas are created where PVDF can replace metallic systems due to its unique properties.
PVDF has a relatively high thermic coefficient of expansion (0,12mm/m °C), similar to all semi-crystalline thermoplastics. When planning the tube system, this fact must be taken into account. Several options include clamping them at fixed points, installing an expansion arc or compensators, or both. This requires a thorough understanding of plastic usage, and we advise using a computer program to calculate the planned system.
Simple connection
The installation of new systems and the correspondingly simple modification of existing systems are both made possible by the welding of PVDF pipe systems. The user can choose between heated tool butt welding and heated tool socket welding, both of which are permitted by DVS 2207-part 15. Please consult with our product management regarding using accessories with butt welding connection pipes for the contact-free heated tool butt welding technology (IR welding).
Choosing Petron Thermoplast
The various PVDF piping we offer meet all national and international quality standards and criteria. We can deliver the entire collection within the allotted time. To enable extrusion, this pipe was melt-blown. VDF serves as the fundamental raw material in the production of PVDF. Alpha compounds that aren’t piezoelectric are typically handled. The material must be strengthened or expanded to reach the piezoelectric beta stage. The membrane on PVDF Pipes is exempt. The thin films of the beta stage structure are far-fetched enough to be believable due to lingering tensions in the process.
