Some manufacturers say it’s 85°C, while others say it’s 100°C. Please let those who have used it know, thank you.
Pumps made of PP perform well at 80 degrees; they definitely cannot withstand temperatures of 100 degrees. Pumps made of PP tend to crack and peel when exposed to high temperatures, just like walls with poor quality in terms of interior decoration.
Pump manufacturers using pure PP generally state 75 degrees, but for PP plastic, the maximum operating temperature is above 100 degrees
Thank you. May I ask: 1. Can enhanced polypropylene pumps be used at 80°C for a long time? 2. What is the maximum temperature for long-term operation of fluoroplastic (F46)?
By pure PP pump, do you mean polypropylene PP or reinforced polypropylene FRPP?
Pure PP means it contains no additives; enhanced versions are not pure
It generally can only be around 80 degrees.
Reinforced polypropylene works well; for F46, it can operate continuously at temperatures up to 100 degrees Celsius. If a material resistant to high temperatures is needed, it can handle temperatures up to 130 degrees Celsius without any problem.
