UPVC is also known as hard PVC. It is formed by the polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer. It is also added with resin. There are some additives in it. In addition to additives, other resins are used for filling, so The use value will be higher. Its adhesion is relatively high, but its fluidity is relatively poor, and it is a relatively difficult material to form when it is produced. The material of PVC is polyvinyl chloride, which is a plastic plastic product synthesized from oil and salt.
On the market, UPVC and PVC pipes are the main types of water pipes, and they are also commonly used water pipe materials at home. However, there are some differences between the two.
First, the characteristics of the two are different.
UPVC pipe, also known as rigid PVC pipe, has the advantages of corrosion resistance and flexibility. The main component of PVC pipe is polyvinyl chloride, and other components are added, so its heat resistance and flexibility will be enhanced, and it is widely used in the market.
Second, the design and material selection angles of the two are different.
PVC water pipes are light in weight, classic and durable, beautiful in color, anti-aging, and have a long service life, so they are widely used in domestic water systems. And UPVC water pipe, its antifreeze performance is not particularly good, and its heat resistance is not particularly strong, but its sealing performance is better, and it is more hygienic and non-toxic, so it is generally used for wire pipes or sewage pipes.
