Polyethylene pressure pipes

Another feature of an extruder is the presence of a gauze filter after the screw and before the die. This effectively filters out any inhomogeneous material which might otherwise clog the die. These screen packs as they are called, will normally filter the melt to 120-150 fim. However, there is conclusive evidence to show that even smaller particles than this can initiate cracks in plastics extrudates e.g. polyethylene pressure pipes. In such cases it has been found that fine melt filtration ( 45 p.m) can significantly improve the performance of the extrudate. [Pg.250]

The development of medium and high density polyethylene pressure pipes over the last thirty years has led to an extensive database on their stress-rupture behaviour, with associated standards for their testing and the interpretation of results [1, 2], Various forms of PVC are also used. The accelerated testing of gas and water pipes is introduced as an example of a field where there is a large database of pressure testing on which current regulations are based, the number of polymers is limited and accelerated tests are widely used (unusually, with two accelerating parameters).

The general definition of CRC in Subsection 24.1.2 does not specify a quantitative measure. Such a measure has to be defined for each specific problem. As an example, we shall now consider rapid crack propagation (RCP). RCP is a dangerous process. Velocities of 100-400m s (that is 300-1,400 feet s ) have been observed in polyethylene (PE) pipes. Since such pipes are being used for fuel gas distribution within localities RCP might be accompanied by an explosion of the gas pressurized inside. [Pg.428]

The HMW-HDPE with a bimodal MWD is primarily used in film applications to fabricate grocery bags (T-shirt bags) and other merchandise bags. However, polyethylene with a bimodal MWD is also used in premium blow-molding markets and high-pressure pipe applications such as natural gas distribution pipe. [Pg.216]

Creep failures such as those illustrated in Fig. 11.12 are often called static fatigue and are not uncommon in practical applications such as pressurized piping applications. Kinloch and Young (1983) gives data on the creep rupture of high-density polyethylene pipe (HDPE) and an excellent discussion of the mechanisms associated with static fatigue. [Pg.382]
