  Understanding UPVC, CPVC, and PVC Solvent Cement Solvent cement is a specialized adhesive used for joining plastic pipes and fittings by chemically bonding them. Depending on the type of plastic pipes, different types of solvent cement are used: 1. UPVC Solvent Cement (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride Solvent Cement) Used for UPVC pipes, which are rigid and widely used for plumbing, irrigation, and drainage systems. Provides strong and leak-proof joints by softening the pipe surface and creating a fused bond. Resistant to water, chemicals, and pressure, making it ideal for cold water plumbing applications. 2. CPVC Solvent Cement (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride Solvent Cement) Specially formulated for CPVC pipes used in hot and cold water applications. Can withstand higher temperatures and pressures, making it suitable for industrial and residential plumbing. Offers excellent chemical resistance and durability, ensuring long-lasting pipe joints. 3. PVC Solvent Cement (Polyvinyl Ch...
