The properties of the medium have an important influence on the selection and use of plastic valves. The chemical and physical properties of different media have a significant impact on the material selection, corrosion resistance, temperature resistance and other aspects of plastic valves.
First, the corrosiveness of the medium is a key factor in selecting plastic valve materials. Corrosive components such as strong acids, strong alkalis, and organic solvents in the medium will corrode the valve materials. Therefore, when selecting plastic valves, plastic materials with good corrosion resistance, such as polypropylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc., must be selected according to the corrosiveness of the medium to ensure long-term and stable use of the valve.
Secondly, the temperature of the medium is also crucial to the selection of plastic valves. High-temperature media can cause plastic materials to soften, deform, or even melt, affecting the sealing performance and service life of the valve. Therefore, for high-temperature media, high-temperature resistant plastic materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polystyrene, etc. should be selected, and the sealing materials and structures of the valves should be ensured to withstand high-temperature environments to ensure the normal operation of the valves.
In addition, the pressure of the medium is also an important factor affecting the selection of plastic valves. High-pressure media will exert greater pressure on the valve, and it is necessary to select plastic materials and structural designs that can withstand high pressure. When selecting a plastic valve, the working pressure range of the medium should be considered, and the valve type and specifications that meet the requirements should be selected to ensure that the valve operates safely and reliably.
Flow rate is another factor that needs to be considered. A medium with a high flow rate will cause greater impact and wear on the valve, affecting the service life of the valve. Therefore, when selecting a plastic valve, the flow rate range of the medium must be considered, and a valve structure and material that can withstand high flow rates should be selected to ensure stable operation of the valve.
Finally, the pH value of the medium will also affect the selection of plastic valves. Acidic or alkaline media will corrode the valve material and affect the service life of the valve. Therefore, when selecting a plastic valve, the pH value range of the medium must be considered, and plastic materials with good acid and alkali resistance should be selected to ensure that the valve can operate stably and reliably.
