The Methylene Chloride Bath is designed to test the gelation quality of rigid PVC pipes. It evaluates the resistance of unplasticized PVC (uPVC) to chemical attack by immersing pipe samples in a temperature-controlled dichloromethane (methylene chloride) bath. This test ensures that the pipe material has been properly gelled during manufacturing and meets durability standards.
