CPVC Solvent Cement by Plastochem

🔹 Step 1: Introduction to CPVC Cement Technical Name: CPVC Solvent Cement (also called CPVC Cement or CPVC Glue). Purpose: Joins CPVC pipes and fittings, creating a leak-proof, permanent joint. Composition: Made of CPVC resins, solvents, and coloring agents. 🔹 Step 2: How CPVC Cement Works Not traditional glue – It works through chemical welding. Process: Softens/melts the pipe surface. When pipe and fitting are joined, the melted layers fuse together. Solvent evaporates → plastic hardens. Result: A homogeneous, strong joint that resists water, heat, and pressure. Cannot be separated once set. 🔹 Step 3: Importance in Plumbing CPVC solvent is essential in CPVC plumbing systems. Good solvent cement must: Form strong joints. Have an optimal drying time. Use safe solvents (for both users and plumbers). 🔹 Step 4: Packaging Types Tubes – Easy for small jobs. Cans with dauber – Ideal for plumbers, easier to apply. 🔹 Step 5: Types of CPVC Solvent Cements One-Step Cement (Yellow, Medium Du...
