Application of PVC, PE and PPR Pipe

Plastic pipes are widely used in many fields due to their advantages such as light weight, corrosion resistance, and easy installation. This article mainly introduces the application fields of PVC, PE and PP plastic pipes:

1. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes

Building water supply and drainage field

PVC pipes are commonly used materials for building water supply and drainage systems. In terms of water supply pipes, due to their good hygienic performance (in line with drinking water delivery standards), municipal water can be safely delivered to various water points in buildings, such as kitchens and faucets in bathrooms at home.

In terms of drainage, PVC drainage pipes have good chemical corrosion resistance and can effectively discharge domestic sewage and wastewater. Its inner wall is smooth, the drainage resistance is small, and it is not easy to clog. For example, in the drainage system of the building's bathroom, including the drainage pipes of toilets, washbasins, showers, etc., PVC pipes can be used.

Wire and cable protection casing field

PVC pipes have good insulation properties and can protect wires and cables from damage by external factors, such as mechanical damage, moisture, etc. In building electrical installation projects, they are widely used for indoor wire protection, so that the wires are neatly and orderly distributed in the walls, floors and ceilings of buildings.

Agricultural irrigation field

Because PVC pipes are relatively low in cost and can withstand certain pressure and corrosion. In farmland irrigation systems, they can be used to transport irrigation water from water sources (such as reservoirs, wells, etc.) to fields, and evenly supply water to crops through supporting devices of different irrigation methods (such as drip irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, etc.).

Polyethylene (PE) pipe

Agricultural irrigation field

Because PVC pipes are relatively low in cost and can withstand certain pressure and corrosion. In farmland irrigation systems, they can be used to transport irrigation water from water sources (such as reservoirs, wells, etc.) to fields, and evenly supply water to crops through supporting devices of different irrigation methods (such as drip irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, etc.).

Gas transportation field

PE pipes have good gas permeability resistance and antistatic properties, and are important materials for gas transportation pipelines. In urban gas supply systems, they are used to transport natural gas or liquefied petroleum gas from gas filling stations or storage stations to residential users' homes, ensuring the safety and efficiency of gas transportation.

Industrial fields

In some industrial environments, such as chemical industry, food processing and other industries, PE pipes can be used to transport liquid raw materials or products. Taking the chemical industry as an example, it can transport some chemical solutions that are not very corrosive, and because of its good flexibility, it is easy to lay pipes in complex industrial plant layouts.

Polypropylene Random (PPR) pipe

Hot water transportation field

PP-R pipe is a pipe specially used for hot water transportation. It has good high temperature resistance and can be used for a long time at high temperature (generally up to about 95℃) without deformation or damage. In the indoor hot water supply system of buildings, such as the hot water pipes from the household water heater to various water points (bathroom shower, kitchen hot water faucet, etc.), PP-R pipes are widely used.
