This article is the impact study on general plastic pipe performance when using Liquid Crystal Polymer (hereinafter LCP) and LCP alloy, the soaking extrusion in-situ composite technique and the coat-molding technique for plastic pipe extrusion. It turns out that the high barrier property of TLCP can help us manufacture 2-layer Oxygen barrier plastic pipe without the adhesive layer or waterproof anti-scratch layer when we use TLCP/TP alloy as barrier material. Taking advantage of the enhancement and noninflammability of TLCP and the soaking extrusion in-situ composite technique, we can replace the coal mine PE pipe with TLCP/TP alloy whose performance is far more than the standard requirements. The oil well pumping pipe can be made from TLCP/TPU alloy based on the high heat resistance of TLCP whose wear resistance, corrosion resistance are no less than UHMWPE pipe or PEX pipe. The heat resistance of this oil well pumping pipe can reach to approx. 250℃ and it can be applied to approx. 8000-meter deep oil well. Since TLCP possesses lots of excellent performances such as high strength and modulus, good heat resistance, low creep and thermal conductivity, small coefficient of linear expansion, we can use coat-molding technique to change the orientation of plastic macromolecules from axial direction to circumferential direction to manufacture low pressure steam pipes, crude oil gathering pipeline and etc. And the circumferential strength of these pipes is no less than their axial strength.

PP-R (random copolymerized polypropylene) has been widely used in hot and cold water systems. However, the standard PP-R pipes have the disadvantages of a large high-temperature thermal expansion coefficient, an insufficient notched impact strength, and a low temperature and pressure resistance. In this paper, a new...

HDPE pipe can be relatively easily scratched during the manipulation on the site, which is especially true for the marine pipelines. Installing the scratched marine pipe with the S bend method presents a risk and repair methods are usually performed. Currently, there is no standard defining the repair procedure, in...

For PE 100-RC, two tests are still under development for pipes: the point load test (PLT) and the accelerated notch pipe test (aNPT). The PLT was developed by a project group consisting of manufacturers and end users. The PLT determines the resistance to point loads as they can occur in practice. An earlier study...

The Point Load Test (PLT) [ 1, 2] was designed to simulate the SCG (slow crack growth) failure initiated by a rock pressing into the exterior wall of a polymer pipe. Today’s PE materials sustain long PLT testing times, due to its high SCG resistance design. Consequently, an accelerated “PLT+” with the support...

Flowable fill is used for many applications, but mainly for pipe trench embedment and backfill. There are three ways that using flowable fill can be kind to the environment. Because flowable fill is self-leveling and has a strength greater than the native soil, the trench cross section can be minimized. This means...
