CPVC Resin

High-Performance Engineering Thermoplastic

Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) is an advanced engineering thermoplastic produced by chlorinating standard PVC. Because it contains a higher proportion of chlorine, it is significantly more flexible, chemically inert, and capable of withstanding higher temperatures and pressures than standard PVC 

ABOUT CPVC RESIN

Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic developed through the chlorination of standard PVC. It offers exceptional heat resistance, superior chemical stability, excellent mechanical strength, and long-term durability, making it an ideal material for industrial piping, hot water systems, and chemical processing applications.

Applications

CPVC Resins play a pivotal role in hot and cold water piping systems, industrial piping systems with acid/alkali resistance, and residential and commercial fire sprinkler piping systems. With a single solution, CPVC Resin caters to a diverse range of applications ensuring reliability and efficiency across industries.

Packaging

Packaged to ensure safe and efficient handling, the options are a 25kg bag with a liner for smaller requirements, and the 1150kg Jumbo bag with liner for larger needs.

Key Properties & Benefits

High Heat Resistance

While standard PVC starts to soften and lose its structure around 60°C (140°F), CPVC can safely handle operating temperatures up to 93°C (200°F). This makes it ideal for hot water lines.

Chemical Immunity

It is highly resistant to corrosive chemicals, acids, bases, and alcohols, which is why it is heavily used in industrial chemical processing.

Fire Performance

CPVC is inherently flame-retardant. It has a high limiting oxygen index (LOI) of about 60%, meaning it requires 60% oxygen in the air to sustain a flame (our atmosphere only has about 21%). It won't easily burn, and if it does ignite, it self-extinguishes once the flame source is removed.

Low Thermal Conductivity

It retains heat much better than metal pipes, reducing energy loss in hot water applications and preventing condensation on cold water lines.

Biocompatibility

It resists bacterial growth (biofilm formation) and does not leach harmful chemicals into drinking water, making it safe for potable water systems.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS

01

Raw Resin
Chlorination

PVC resin is chlorinated under UV/thermal energy to increase chlorine content to 63–69%, forming CPVC resin.

02

High-Speed
Compounding

CPVC resin is blended with stabilizers, lubricants, impact modifiers and other additives in high-speed mixers.

03

Twin-Screw
Extrusion

The blended material is melted in a co-rotating twin-screw extruder under controlled heat to form molten state.

04

Die-Face
Pelletizing

Molten material is extruded through die holes and cut into uniform pellets using high-speed knives.

05

Cooling &
Packaging

Pellets are cooled, sieved for uniformity and packed in industrial bags for safe delivery.
