The cost of 100 feet of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) pipe can vary widely depending on several factors including the diameter and thickness (schedule) of the pipe, the grade (e.g., for potable water, waste, irrigation), and regional market pricing differences. As of the latest data, smaller diameter pipes (like 1/2" Schedule 40) might cost anywhere from $20 to $40 for 100 feet. For larger diameters or higher schedules (e.g., Schedule 80), the price can easily exceed $100 or more for the same length. Prices also fluctuate based on demand and raw material costs. Therefore, it's essential to specify the intended use to get accurate pricing or consult with suppliers directly for the most current prices.
PVC, or polyvinicol chloride, is a common material used in the manufacturing of furniture, known for its durability and ease of maintenance. However, its safety has been a subject of debate. The primary concern revolves around the release of harmful chemicals, notably phthalates (used to soften PVC), which can disrupt hormonal functions, and vinyl chloride, a known carcinogen. Although the risks associated with the direct use of PVC furniture in a well-ventilated space might be relatively low, the production and disposal stages pose significant environmental and health issues due to the release of toxic chemicals. Moreover, when burned, PVC emits dioxins, highly toxic compounds. It is crucial to ensure that PVC furniture you purchase is certified low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) and phthalate-free for an added safety margin. Opting for furniture made from natural materials can be a safer and more sustainable choice.
Polypropylene plastic is notoriously difficult to bond due to its low surface energy. For successful adhesion, surface preparation is key; a light abrasion or specialized surface treatment like Corona treatment is recommended to enhance bonding. The most effective adhesives for polypropylene are two-part epoxies, polyurethane glues, and specialized plastic adhesives that are specifically formulated for polyolefins. Cyanoacrylate glues can also be used but may not provide as durable a bond. For the best results, using a primer designed for polypropylene before applying the adhesive can significantly improve adhesion. Always ensure the area is clean and follow the manufacturer's instructions for the adhesive application.
