Hi all,
https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=129814
I know that HDPE tubing is not commonly used for water cooling. I work in a research lab, and I am designing a system that needs to cool a few Thermoelectric Coolers (Peltier coolers) with water cooling.
I am wondering what soft-tubing type is best for this application? It needs to be able to withstand 5% isopropyl alcohol for biocidal purposes and also have a very long lifetime. The tubes need to not crack, split, or degrade over the timespan of at least 8-10 years. I'm thinking HDPE would be good for this, but it is not widely used for this, so I am concerned.
Do you have any other recommendations?
Thanks!
