PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Apollo PEX™ tubing
is cross-linked, high density polyethylene. The silane method, also called the
"moisture cure" method, results in PEX-B, where the cross-linking is
performed in a secondary post-extrusion process, producing cross-links between
a cross-linking agent. The process is accelerated with heat and moisture. The
cross-linked bonds are formed through silanol condensation between two grafted
vinyltrimethoxysilane (VTMS) units, connecting the polyethylene chains with
C-C-Si-O-SiC-C bridges. PEX tubing is for use in hot and cold potable water
distribution systems. PEX tubing can also be used in "continuously
recirculating" plumbing systems up to 140 deg F while maintaining chlorine
resistance. The tubing may be installed in concrete, gypsum based lightweight
concrete, sand, asphalt, in or under wood flooring or behind wallboard or
plaster.
