Are there any classifications for PE pipes?
Polyethylene (PE) pipe is a commonly used plastic pipe. According to different density, it can be divided into low density polyethylene pipe (LDPE pipe), medium density polyethylene pipe (MDPE pipe) and high density polyethylene pipe (HDPE pipe). . Although they are both polyethylene plastics, there are obvious differences in performance, scope of application and price.
First of all, HDPE pipe is the abbreviation of high-density polyethylene pipe, which has high molecular weight and good wear resistance. Compared with ordinary PE pipes, HDPE pipes are 9 times stronger, so they are very suitable for the production of pressure pipes. HDPE pipes are widely used in fields such as municipal engineering water supply systems, building indoor water supply systems, and outdoor underground water supply systems.
Secondly, MDPE pipe refers to medium density polyethylene pipe, which is mainly used to transport gaseous artificial gas, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas and other fields. MDPE pipe exhibits good performance and reliability in the transportation of these gases.
Finally, LDPE pipe is the abbreviation of low-density polyethylene pipe, which is widely used in plastic films, daily sundries and other fields. Due to its low density, LDPE pipe has good flexibility and ductility and has important application value in these fields.
