Polyethylene is a very interesting alternative to traditional materials for pipes - cast iron, steel or cement, for various technical or economic reasons. Wide spread and technical development of plastic pipes are explained by the special characteristics of the material.
Abrasion. Polyethylene has higher abrasion resistance in comparison with steel and cement; this property provides the possibility of its use for pumping water with content of solid particles (sludge, solution) and for dredging of sand and gravel.
Flexibility. The high flexibility of polyethylene and the ability to return to original form after deformation allows the material to absorb vibration, shocks and stresses resulting from soil movement and therefore such pipes can be installed in unstable soil.
Ease. Polyethylene pipes have a low specific weight and hence their transportation and installation is simple and very economical.
Corrosion. Polyethylene is chemically inert at normal operating temperature; for this reason, it is not formed cracks, corrosion, wall thickness is not reduced during the electrochemical reaction with the soil. The material does not stimulate growth of algae, bacteria or fungi.
The chemical effect. Polyethylene has a high resistance to many chemicals (see technical guide Т2001).
The heat resistance. When exposed to normal changes in ambient temperature the polyethylene is not spoiled.
Low temperature. Mechanical properties of polyethylene allow to use pipes even at very low temperatures (about -60°C).
Resistance to ultraviolet rays. In order to avoid damage to the polyethylene (ageing) when exposed to ultraviolet rays (sunlight) into the material is added to coal, any stabilizer that allows you to store tubes even outdoors for a long time.
Thermal and electrical conductivity. Polyethylene has a very low thermal conductivity and is a poor conductor of electric current.
Toxicity. The polyethylene is completely non-toxic material and, consequently, suitable for pumping drinking water or tap water; the material meets the hygienic and sanitary requirements the Ministry of health (Order № 102 from 02.12.1978).
