CPVC Sheet FAQ: Specifications, Ordering and Support Questions

What thicknesses and sizes are available?

The thickness range is 3 mm to 20 mm. Width is up to 1,300 mm, and length can be any length. Sizes include 1,000 mm × 2,000 mm, 1,220 mm × 2,440 mm, and 1,300 mm × 2,000 mm. The colors are dark grey and light grey.

For an inquiry, state the required thickness, width, length, color, and quantity so the requested configuration can be reviewed against the product information.

What is this material made from?

The product is made from chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, also called CPVC. Chlorination of PVC resin changes the molecular structure and increases the resin’s polarity, solubility, and chemical stability. It also has improved heat resistance and resistance to acid, alkali, salt, and oxidizer corrosion as material characteristics.

What heat-related property does it have?

The published information reports that the Vicat softening temperature increased from 72–82 °C for PVC resin to 90–125 °C after chlorination. This is a documented material description, not a general operating limit for every application. Project-specific temperature suitability should be confirmed for the intended service conditions.

Can the sheet be fabricated, welded, or machined?

Yes. The product description identifies it as easily fabricated, welded, or machined. It also lists high rigidity, superior strength, and reliable electrical insulation among its characteristics. The appropriate fabrication method and process conditions should be evaluated for the specific part or installation.

What chemical and electrical characteristics are listed?

The characteristics include excellent chemical and corrosion resistance, excellent thermal stability, reliable electrical insulation, low flammability, and self-extinguishing behavior. They do not replace application-specific testing, code review, or certification requirements.

Where is CPVC sheet used?

The listed applications are mainly in chemical and industrial settings. They include chlorine electrolysis, electroplating, the paper industry, semiconductor applications, and clean-room technology. Examples named in the product information include laboratory equipment, etching equipment, semiconductor processing equipment, chemical storage tanks, oil tanks, brewing-water storage tanks, acid or alkali production towers, and acid or alkali washing towers.

What should a buyer provide when asking about this product?

A buyer should identify the required thickness, width, length, color, and quantity. It is also useful to describe the intended application, such as a tank, tower, processing component, or clean-room-related use, because the published information covers multiple industrial applications. Any required fabrication method, chemical exposure, temperature conditions, electrical requirements, or compliance documentation should be raised for project-specific review rather than assumed from the general description.

Does the published information identify production capacity?

Yes. The product information states that the manufacturer has three CPVC sheet production lines with an annual capacity of 3,000 tons. It separately lists 20 PVC sheet production lines with an annual capacity of 30,000 tons. These are the published production figures and should not be interpreted as a delivery promise for a particular order.

Are certifications, delivery times, or prices listed here?
