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
