Test Result for Weather Resistance

1. UV Aging Test (QUV) max 700hr & subsequent product property evaluation
2. Weather Resistance: Evalaution on decreased performance of the material
when exposed outdoors for a long duration to be influenced by multiple types of weathering
3. Material Name: iPVC Plant Pipe

Test Result for Weather Resistance
iPVC Plant Pipe		L	a	b	ΔE	Tensile Strength (MPa)
UV Evaluation Period (hr)	Initial Stage	66.9	-17.5	-20.4	-	54
	100	64.2	-18.3	-10	10.7	55
	240	58.6	-12.6	0.1	22.5	56
	700	26.8	-0.1	-1.8	47.4	56

4. 4. Conclusion: UV exposure results in color change,
but property changes such as tensile strength are minimal.

Test Result of Chemical Resistance

Test Result of Chemical Resistance iPVC Plant Pipe has excellent chemical resistance against a wide range of chemical substances and mixtures.
- However, it can be influenced by temperature and density during use.
