Can PVC pipes be used as drinking water pipes? Isn't vinyl chloride harmful to people?
PVC water pipes can be used as drinking water pipes. The main component of PVC material is PVC, not vinyl chloride, and PVC is harmless to human body. However, due to the exudation of PVC-U monomer and additives, it is only applicable to the water supply system with the transmission temperature not exceeding 45 â.
PVC pipe (PVC-U pipe) is made of PVC resin, stabilizer, lubricant, etc. and then extruded by hot pressing. It is the earliest plastic pipe developed and applied. PVC-U pipe has strong corrosion resistance, is easy to bond, low price and hard texture. Plastic pipes are used for drainage, waste water, chemicals, heating and cooling liquids, food, ultra-pure liquid, mud, gas, compressed air and vacuum systems.
The essence of PVC pipe is a kind of vacuum plastic absorption film, which is used for the surface packaging of various types of panels, so it is also called decorative film and adhesive film, which is used in many industries such as building materials, packaging, medicine and so on. Among them, the building materials industry accounts for the largest proportion, accounting for 60%, followed by the packaging industry, as well as a number of other small-scale applications.
PVC pipes are divided into PVC water supply pipes and drainage pipes, which are used for municipal water supply and drainage, industrial water supply and drainage, civil water supply and drainage, irrigation, vegetation watering, etc.
