Plastics in Water Purification: Materials that Withstand Chemicals
We offer a range of materials that can be used in water purification contexts, such as in the manufacture of components that withstand chemicals. But which materials are best suited for this type of application? What makes them so resistant to chemicals like chlorine, acids, and bases?
An important property of materials to be used in water purification is their chemical resistance. We know that chemicals like chlorine, acids, and bases can be very aggressive and damage many types of materials. Therefore, it is essential to choose materials that can withstand these chemicals.
Materials for Water Purification
We have several materials that can be used in water purification, such as PP, PVDF, PE-HD, and PTFE. These materials all have good chemical resistance and can be used in a variety of applications. For example, PP and PE-HD can be used for the manufacture of tanks and pipes, while PVDF and PTFE can be used for the manufacture of filter housings and other components that require high chemical resistance.
One of the most critical properties of these materials is their ability to withstand chemicals. For example, PTFE has a very high chemical resistance and can be used in applications where other materials would corrode or be damaged. PTFE has a Shore hardness of 65° D and is thus a very hard and durable material.
Applications in Water Purification
In water purification, a variety of components are used, such as tanks, pipes, filter housings, and pipe supports. These components must be able to withstand the chemicals used in water purification, as well as the physical stresses they are subjected to. We have materials that can be used for the manufacture of all these components, and we can help you choose the right material for your application.
For example, we can use PE-HD for the manufacture of tanks and pipes, since it is a very durable material that can withstand chemicals and physical stresses. We can also use PVDF for the manufacture of filter housings, since it is a material that has very high chemical resistance and can withstand the chemicals used in water purification.
But what happens if you choose the wrong material for your application? Can it be so bad that the components corrode or are damaged, and thus affect the water quality? Yes, unfortunately, it is possible. Therefore, it is essential to choose the right material from the start and ensure that the material can withstand the chemicals and physical stresses it will be exposed to.
Real-World Considerations
When choosing materials for water purification, you must also consider real-world conditions. For example, the temperature and pressure in the system can affect the material's durability. We must also consider the chemicals used in water purification and ensure that the material can withstand these chemicals.
Another important factor is the maintenance of the components. If the components are not properly maintained, they can corrode or be damaged, and thus affect the water quality. We must also consider the costs of maintenance and repair and ensure that the material is cost-effective.
Which materials are then best suited for water purification? How can we ensure that the material can withstand chemicals and physical stresses? And what happens if we choose the wrong material? These are all important questions that we must consider when choosing materials for water purification.
