- Advanced Bimodal MDPE for Piping Applications
Author(s) : Michie, Chang, Whited 2008 Budapest
The first NA produced bimodal MDPE pipe resin developed through unique molecular architecture offers significantly better resistance to slow crack growth and rapid crack propagation than traditional unimodal PE2708 / PE2406 products. This high performance resin extrudes well on conventional equipment, has good melt...
- Characterizing Long-Term Performance of Plastic Piping Materials in Potable Water Applications
Author(s) : Chung, Li, Oliphant, Vibien, Rozental-Evesque, Rabaud 2008 Budapest
Plastic piping materials confer many advantages for applications in Potable Water transportation. Considerable research has been conducted to develop methodologies for ensuring performance in these applications for service lifetimes that target an excess of 100 years. A key component of these accelerated methodologies...
- Novel Qualification Procedure for Lifetime and Safety Assessment of PE Pressure Pipes
Author(s) : Lang, Frank, Pinter 2008 Budapest
For lifetime prediction of pressurized polyethylene (PE) pipes based on methods of the linear elastic fracture mechanics the knowledge of the crack resistance and kinetics of creep crack growth (CCG) is essential. In the present work a rather brittle non pipe material was used to develop a methodology for an...
- Pennsylvania Department of Transportation

- The next gas Fronteer
Author(s) : Zhou Minhong 2008 Budapest
The advanced bimodal PE4710 materials enable its applications in large diameter gas pipe to replace cast iron and steel pipe. Among the three key field performances, the pressure rating is independent of pipe diameters. However, the SCG and RCP properties are dependent of pipe diameters. As pipe diameters increases,...
- Thermal Stability and Long-Term Strength of Plastics Pipes Required
Author(s) : Kazuhisa Igawa 2008 Budapest
Plastic pipes such as PEX and PB pipes have been widely used for water and hot water supply, and for central heating for residential use in Japan. The qualities of PEX and PB pipes and joints have been maintained at high levels as products and as jointing techniques for 20 years or more in Japan. There are few...
