produce polyethylene

polymeric material (polyethylene) produced by the pyrolysis of hydrocarbons, in which a white solid formed, which does not interact with the oil, acetone, gasoline and other solvents, and acids.The raw material for the creation of the material acts as a natural hydrocarbon gas produced during oil processing.

pressure at which the polymerization of ethylene is 150-300Mpa.The material has an excellent dielectric characteristics.In the molecular structure represented by a kind of circuit branches with crystallinity above 60%.This gives him the heat resistance.

Polyethylene pipe specifications working with these products temperature should be no higher than 40 ° C, and products for more walls thicken operation.

Due to the peculiar changes in the structure of polyethylene becomes heat resistant, resistant to cracks, impact resistant.

Frequently used high-pressure low-density polyethylene, which produces at 80 ° C and a pressure of 0.6 MPa.The result is a low-pressure polyethylene, which has a milky color, is not exposed to alkalis, acids of all kinds.

Advantages of polyethylene products

low pressure polyethylene pipes Where are: technical specifications?

  1. Drinking water system and economic needs.
  2. pressure and gravity sewer system.
  3. Waterproofing heating mains.
  4. protection power cables and electrical wiring from irritants.
  5. Solid building massing.
  6. greenhouses require irrigation and soil treatment.
  7. to create an ice field.

To protect the electrical cable lay underground communications, since inside walls have a smooth surface and allows deftly stretching cables, and outside corrugated, therefore protected from mechanical influences.

Polyethylene pipe specifications also include the application should call the underwater pipelines.Since they are mounted on the bank, and then slowly poured by water ballast loads.

And for hot water and heating, in turn, used crosslinked polyethylene pipe specifications which are endowed with great flexibility.

Polymer products is becoming more and more popular in various fields and is represented by such characteristics:

  • service life of more than 50 years.
  • savings on maintenance because it does not require cathodic protection.
  • dimensional parameters 7traz less than steel and have a lower weight.
  • Chemical environment and corrosion does not threaten polyethylene communications.
  • Smoothness of pipe surface, which does not accumulate fat and scum on their walls.
  • When water freezes is not destroyed.
  • Resistance to water hammer.
  • Polyethylene pipes have a greater length than the metal.
  • high level of smoothness of the inner side of the pipe, which is unable to accumulate bacteria, scale and grease.It ensures compliance with health and safety standards.

Polyethylene pipe specifications Polyethylene pipes can save up to 40% of installation and reconstruction of water supply systems, in contrast to the same services for steel pipes.

diameter pipeline communication varies from 500-1200 mm.

Polyethylene pipes for gas supply specifications

Polyethylene pipes can be used in the gas industry, and the product of this material put mark "GAS".Gas economy requires in its setting certain requirements, such as corrosion resistance, long-term operation, namely pipes of polymer mother's ability to meet the requirements.It is also lightweight and cathodic protection of long workpieces to prepare and build a pipeline in a short time and with low loss, unlike metal.

also will not require a large number of workers engaged in welding, pipe laying and waterproofing, transport and earthworks.The pipes can be used for trenching water supply and drainage - quite promising direction for communications that require little intervention in the ground.

Polyethylene pipe specifications Now you know what the technical specifications are endowed with polyethylene pipe and they can feel free to choose either, as you no one deprives the choice of any other material.But remember, for more than 50 years, they can serve as plastic products, you can not serve any longer.And no matter what you choose - good luck!
