With the acceleration of technological progress, new technologies, new materials and new processes are constantly emerging? Compared with traditional materials, the advantages of plastic pipes are more and more prominent. Compared with the traditional metal steel pipe, the new wear-resistant plastic ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) pipe has the advantages of light weight (generally only 1/8 of steel pipe), corrosion resistance, impact resistance, good tensile strength, low-temperature frost cracking resistance and no scaling, and the inner surface of UHMWPE pipe is smoother than that of cast iron pipe. Large sliding amount, low friction coefficient and small fluid resistance can reduce the energy consumption of medium transportation by more than 9%. Comprehensive energy saving is good. ? Convenient transportation, simple installation and long service life up to 30-50 years. Polyethylene pipe has developed rapidly all over the world, and developed countries have applied it to mining, dredging, coal chemical industry, electric power, marine lakes and other fields. The new wear-resistant plastic ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) pipe has gained the upper hand. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) pipe is a new type of wear-resistant plastic. Due to the continuous innovation of new plastic pipe technology in recent years, it is widely used not only to replace steel pipes and cast iron pipes, but also to replace cement pipes. In 20 13 years, the national output of plastic pipes120,000 tons, and the consumption of raw materials for PP pipes is about 550,000 tons, among which the consumption of raw materials for UHMWPE pipes is 240,000 tons.
Some far-sighted manufacturers have turned their attention to dredging, mining and municipal engineering, and introduced advanced pipe processing production lines, so that China has more than 90 such pipe processing production lines, of which Luoyang Guorun Pipe Industry Co., Ltd. has 30 production lines with an annual processing capacity of 300,000 tons. At the same time, some end users are familiar with the advantages of the new wear-resistant plastic ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) pipe, and choose UHMWPE pipe to replace the traditional steel pipe and cast iron pipe, which greatly saves manpower and material resources, obviously improves the transportation effect, and greatly shortens the period of pipeline maintenance and replacement. ?
