What is a PVC Pipe?
PVC stands for polyvinyl chloride. This is a chlorinated hydrocarbon polymer. It is rigid and brittle in its natural state. However, it becomes softer and malleable when added to additives like plasticizers.
It is used in electrical insulation, medical tubing, flooring, furniture, signage, and as a rubber substitute. However, it is most commonly used to manufacture pipes for water supply, plumbing, and irrigation. There are a few variants of PVC pipe that are used in industrial and commercial settings as hot and cold water conduits.
