The right Material selection for your CALORPLAST (plastic) heat exchanger

PE (Polyethylen)

PE offers excellent resistance to most acids and bases. Thanks to its flexibility, versatility and durability, PE is an excellent choice for a wide range of industrial applications. CALORPLAST uses the variants PE-RT(raised temperature), which is permanently suitable for higher temperatures (up to approx. 80 °C) in corrosive environments, and PE-HD(high density), which has a comparatively high strength combined with a low overall weight.

PVDF (Polyvinyldenfluorid)

PVDF offers excellent resistance to most aggressive acids. It is known for its high purity and strength even at high temperatures (up to approx. 140 °C), which makes it ideal for applications where the highest demands are placed on chemical resistance, temperature and compressive strength. It is not suitable for alkaline media.

PP (Polypropylen)

PP is a versatile material that is valued for its corrosion resistance and cost-effectiveness. It is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Polypropylene (PP) is lightweight yet robust, making it a cost-effective solution for many heat transfer applications.

PFA (Perfluoralkoxy)

PFA is known for its exceptional chemical resistance and high temperature tolerance. It is particularly suitable for extreme chemical environments. PFA also offers excellent abrasion resistance and is easy to clean, making it a preferred material for demanding applications in chemistry and research.

VA (Edelstahl)

Stainless steel as a material refers to alloyed or unalloyed steel grades with a comparatively high chromium and low carbon content, which results in high temperature and corrosion resistance. Our stainless steel bath heat exchangers are primarily used in alkaline tanks and baths, e.g. in the alkaline degreasing of process parts in the electroplating industry.
