High Density Polyethylene, English name is “High Density Polyethylene”, referred to as “HDPE”. HDPE is a high crystallinity, non – polar thermoplastic resin. The appearance of the original HDPE is milky white, with a certain degree of translucency in the thin section. PE has excellent resistance to most household and industrial chemicals. Certain types of chemicals can cause chemical corrosion, such as corrosive oxidants (concentrated nitric acid), aromatic hydrocarbons (xylene), and halogenated carbons tetrachloride. The polymer is not hygroscopic and has good waterproof vapor properties, which can be used for packaging purposes. HDPE has very good electrical properties, especially high dielectric strength of insulation, which makes it very suitable for wire and cable. Medium to high molecular weight classes have excellent impact resistance at room temperature and even low temperatures of -40F. Hdpe tube HDPE is a thermoplastic polyolefin produced by ethylene copolymerization. Although HDPE has been around since 1956, the plastic hasn’t reached maturity yet. The universal material is also constantly developing new uses and markets. PE can be manufactured in a wide range of different processes. These include extrusions such as sheet extrusion, film extrusion, tube or profile extrusion, blow molding, injection molding and roll molding. HDPE pipe is the replacement of traditional steel pipe and PVC drinking water pipe. HDPE tube must withstand a certain pressure, usually choose large molecular weight, mechanical properties of better PE resin, such as HDPE resin. LDPE resin has low tensile strength, poor pressure resistance, poor rigidity, poor dimensional stability during molding, and difficult connection, so it is not suitable as a material for water supply pressure pipe. But because of its high health index, LDPE especially LLDPE resin has become the production of drinking water pipe commonly used materials. LDPE, LLDPE resin melt viscosity is small, good fluidity, easy to process, so the selection range of its melt index is wider, usually MI between 0.3-3G /10min. Other notes: The plastic pipe in the construction of the design theory and construction technology and other aspects of the great development and improvement, and accumulated rich practical experience, promote the plastic pipe in the construction of water supply and drainage pipe engineering occupy a very important position, and form an unstoppable trend of development. In our country, the more plastic pipes used in water supply pipelines are mainly PVC-U feed pipe, PP-R pipe, aluminum-plastic composite pipe (PAP), steel plastic composite pipe (SP), HDPE pipe and so on. HDPE pipe is the latest two or three years to appear in the market, is the use of advanced production technology and technology, through hot extrusion and molding, with corrosion resistance, smooth wall, small flow resistance, high strength, good toughness, light weight and other characteristics. HDPE pipeline is after PVC-U water supply pipeline, has become the world’s second largest consumption of plastic pipeline variety.
