PP-R Pipes & Fittings

A successful product could be defined as one which consistently meets the requirements of the key members of the value chain.

 PP-R pipes & fittings for plumbing and heating applications is a good example.

It offers, to the converters easy processability to both pipes and fittings, to system suppliers proprietary colours, to the installer excellent weldability, and to the building owner no taste and odour influence, long service lifetime and excellent environmental LCA results.

WHAT IS PPR  :  PP-R is a thermoplastic polyolefin which is easy to process into pipes & fittings with superior chemical & physical properties. Polypropylene homopolymer (PP – H) is made by polymerizing propylene in the presence of a catalyst at moderate temperatures and pressures.

Why we need PP-R : They are  Best carriers  of potable water (both Hot or cold) in domestic as well as in industrial application IN TERMS OF QUALITY & PRICE

When we need PP-R: When Long term performance under adverse conditions without deviations in standards is required

Where we need PP-R : Areas of Plumbing/Water tight systems/corrosion resistance/No encrustation tendency/Noise dampening plastic material/Long term pressure resistance applications

WORLD TREND IN PP-R PIPES

  • PP-R pipes have been replacing copper & lead plumbing pipes in Europe because of cost to benefit ratio favoring PPR. In Asian countries GI pipes are practiced in general for plumbing applications.
  • China has recently passed a law mandating the use of PP-R pipes for all new buildings to save on conventional metals which are scarce & save on energy losses.
  • PP-R in turn consume less energy & its use will save on precious & limited metals. India needs to have such law very soon otherwise there will be very little left in earth.
  • In countries where environment is cold PP-R pipes are used in floor heating applications. This concept is at very nascent stage in India.

Features & Benefits over conventional C.I. & A.C. Systems

  • Lightweight: Easy to transport & handle.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Unaffected by most of chemicals and is rust proof.
  • Rodent Repellent: Special treatment at compounding stage ensures that the product is immune to rodent attacks.
  • High Flow Rate: Due to internal smooth surface the excellent flow properties remains constant throughout its life.
  • Fire resistance: UPVC is Self-extinguishing as it does not support combustion.
  • Non-Conductive: Safe from attacks by galvanic or electrolytic action.
  • Weather Resistant: Excellent outdoor weathering performance due to specially blended UV stabilized compound.
  • Easy to install- Push fit hence less time consuming than CI or AC Systems.
  • Easy Cleaning- Threaded door caps provide easy access for cleaning & maintenance.

Application

  • Hot and cold water supplying pipes
  • Sanitary lines

Water purifying / Pharmaceutical plants for clean water

  • Lines for conveying liquid food products
  • Industrial systems like conveying air pressure aggressive fluids like acids, alkaline solutions
  •               Effluent and Sewage Disposal

Pipes for Agriculture use.

  • Radiator heating pipes.
  • Chilled water circuit for refrigeration units

Process of Manufacturing PP-R Pipes :

The mixture of Polypropylene-R Granuals and master batch (for colour) is passed through the heated Barrel zone where it melts. The material after passing through the barrel zone passes through the Die head zone and finally comes out of the die in the shape of pipe. The pipe then passes through the vaccume tank and spray bath where the pipe takes the round shape by the help of vacuum and is cooled.  The haul off helps to pull the pipe. The pipes are then cut into their desired lengths.
