PPR pipe and PVC pipe are two common pipe materials, and there are some differences between them in terms of material, performance and use occasions. The following will introduce the characteristics and differences of these two types of pipes.
1. Materials. PPR tube is a kind of random copolymer polypropylene tube, which is made of propylene monomer and a small amount of ethylene monomer copolymerized under the action of heating and catalyst, so it is also called random copolymer polypropylene tube. Whereas, PVC pipes are pipes made of polyvinyl chloride resin, also known as rigid polyvinyl chloride pipes.
Second, performance. 1.Temperature resistance: PPR pipes have a wide temperature resistance range, which can be used in the temperature range of -20 95, while PVC pipes have a narrow temperature resistance range, generally not exceeding 45.
2.Pressure resistance: PPR pipes have better pressure resistance and can withstand higher pressures, while PVC pipes have relatively poor pressure resistance.
3.Environmental protection: PPR pipe is an environmentally friendly material, non-toxic and tasteless, and will not pollute water quality, while PVC pipe may contain some harmful substances, which has a certain impact on water quality.
4.Easy installation: PPR pipes have various connection methods, such as hot melt connection and electric fusion connection, which is convenient and quick to install, while the connection method of PVC pipe is relatively simple, and auxiliary materials such as glue are needed for connection.

3. Occasions of use.
Due to the differences in performance and use occasions between PPR pipes and PVC pipes, their application ranges are also different. Generally speaking, PPR pipes are mainly used in building water supply, drinking water, heating, gas and other fields, while PVC pipes are mainly used in wire and cable sheathing, sewer sewage, chemical liquid transportation and other fields.
In short, PPR pipe and PVC pipe have their own characteristics and advantages, and it is necessary to choose the appropriate pipe material according to the actual needs and use occasions. When selecting pipeline materials, it is necessary to consider the performance of the pipeline, the use occasion, the installation method and other aspects to ensure the use effect and service life of the pipeline.
