Weatherability

Depending on the specific application, prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause a gradual reduction in the material’s properties. Lubrizol CPVC is formulated to protect the polymer backbone from the effects of ultraviolet radiation.

If the specific installation requires additional protection from UV exposure, Lubrizol CPVC can be painted with common acrylic latex paint or be coated with a cap layer. Lubrizol has decades of formulation experience tailoring CPVC compounds to various applications, for additional information please contact us.
