Methods to prevent aging of PVC pipes?
Thread Content
Dear engineers, what are the methods for preventing aging of PVC pipes? Please share some information! Thank you!
It’s already a shaped pipe; there’s no good solution. However, it is possible to consider covering the pipes with a light-blocking material to slow down the rate of aging. Also, the temperature of the material inside the pipes should ideally not be higher than the operating temperature of the PVC pipes. Also, after use, it is best to empty the material from the pipes in order to reduce the migration and extraction of plasticizers from the PVC pipes.
