Unplasticised PVC or uPVC are also the rigid PVC. Pipes of these materials are restricted in some countries like USA due to environmental hazardous during use & manufacturing.
Advantages Cheap, good acid and alkali resistance. Flame-retardant. Stiff and strong. Can be transparent. Good vapour barrier properties. Good UV resistance. Disadvantages Difficult to melt process, requires modification. Limited solvent stress cracking resistance. Becomes brittle at (c 5°C (40°F) ) unless impact modified. Low continuous service temperature of 50°C (120°F).
Applications Pipe and pipefittings, building products e.g. gutters, cladding, window frames. Bottles, film, records, floor tiling

What is difference between PVC and uPVC pipes?
The main difference between PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) pipes is the composition of the material. PVC pipes contain added plasticizers to make them more flexible, whereas uPVC pipes are rigid and do not contain plasticizers, making them better suited for pressure applications such as water supply lines. uPVC pipes are also more resistant to chemical corrosion and are typically used in plumbing and drainage systems.
