New ASTM Standard F2618 Covers CPVC Chemical Waste Systems
The American Society for Testing and Materials recently issued a new standard, F2618, which details the performance requirements of CPVC pipe, fittings and solvent cements used in chemical waste drainage systems.
Manufacturers producing products to this new specification must meet a number of criteria, including: pipe and fittings dimensions; pipe, fitting and solvent cement integrity tests; marking and minimum chemical resistance requirements for a broad range of cold and hot chemical reagents.
