Product Description
PP pipes are tubular products made from polypropylene (PP) as the
main raw material, manufactured through processes like extrusion
molding. They are among the most widely used plastic pipes
available today, with common types including standard PP pipes and
PP-R pipes. PP pipes offer remarkable advantages for industrial wastewater
discharge systems, primarily due to their exceptional corrosion
resistance, balanced mechanical properties, and long-term
cost-effectiveness.
Core Advantages
They exhibit high chemical stability at room temperature, remaining
unaffected by most acids (such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric
acid with a concentration ≤ 90%), alkalis (like sodium hydroxide),
and salt solutions—effectively withstanding the corrosive nature of
complex industrial wastewater from sectors like chemical
engineering, electroplating, and metallurgy. Unlike metal pipes, PP
pipes are non-metallic, eliminating the risk of electrochemical
corrosion and rusting caused by electrolyte-containing wastewater
or fluctuations in water pH and dissolved oxygen, thus preventing
wastewater leakage and environmental pollution. Additionally, their
lightweight nature (density of only 0.90-0.91 g/cm³, about 1/8 that
of steel pipes) allows for easy transportation and installation
without heavy lifting equipment, while their smooth inner walls
reduce the adhesion of suspended solids and sediment, minimizing
pipe clogging and the need for frequent maintenance. Over a 15-20
year service life, PP pipes also reduce total lifecycle costs
significantly, as they require no regular anti-corrosion treatments
(unlike steel pipes) and have much lower annual maintenance
expenses compared to traditional materials.
Applications
In terms of specific applications, PP pipes are widely used in
various industrial wastewater discharge scenarios to meet diverse
operational needs. In the chemical industry, they are employed to
transport wastewater containing organic solvents, acidic or
alkaline residues, and chemical by-products, leveraging their
corrosion resistance to avoid material degradation and
contamination. The electroplating industry relies on PP pipes to
convey wastewater with heavy metal ions (such as chromium, nickel,
and copper), as their inert surface prevents metal ion adsorption
and pipe corrosion, ensuring the stable operation of subsequent
wastewater treatment processes. In the food processing and
metallurgy sectors, PP pipes handle wastewater with moderate
temperatures (usually ≤ 40℃) and high levels of suspended
solids—their smooth inner walls maintain unobstructed flow, while
their good impact resistance and low-temperature toughness
(remaining non-brittle at -10℃ to 0℃) adapt to both underground
burial and above-ground installation environments. Even in
scenarios with flammability risks, such as oil and gas-related
industries, flame-retardant modified PP pipes (with an oxygen index
≥ 27) can be utilized to enhance safety by inhibiting flame spread,
making them a versatile and reliable choice across multiple
industrial fields.
