Resistoflex® Polypropylene-Lined
Polypropylene is our most economical system. It has good resistance to both inorganic acids and bases.
Polypropylene Homopolymer
- Used in 1”-8” Swaged Pipe
- Used in 1”-12” fittings
- Temperature capability 0º F– 225º
- Will exhibit brittle behavior as temperatures approach 0 F (-18 C)
- Possesses some abrasion resistance
Polypropylene Copolymer
- Used in 1’-12” Thermalok Pipe
- More ductile than homopolymer PP and hence has improved low temperature resistance
- Temperature capability -20 º F – 225º
- Better abrasion resistance
Typical industries using PP
- Water Treatment
- Chemical Processing
- Food and Beverage
- Steel & stainless steel pickling
- Power Generation
Common PP Applications
- Up to 38% HCl
- <90% H2SO4
- <30% HNO3
- <60% HF
- Sea Water / Brine
- NaOH (caustic)
- Ultrapure Water
- Fruit Juices
