Introduction of 3LPE Coated Line Pipe
Brief introduction:
The base material of 3PE anti-corrosive coating steel pipe includes seamless steel pipe, spiral welded steel pipe and straight seam welded steel pipe. Three-layer polyethylene (3PE) anti-corrosive coating has been widely used in the oil pipeline industry for its good corrosion resistance, water vapor permeability resistance and mechanical properties. 3PE anti-corrosion coating is very important for the service life of buried pipelines. Some pipelines of the same material are buried in the ground for decades without corrosion, and some are leaked in a few years. The reason is that they use different coatings.
Anti-corrosion structure:
3PE anti-corrosion coating is generally composed of three layers of structure: the first layer is epoxy powder (FBE) > 100um, the second layer is adhesive (AD) 170 ~ 250um, the third layer is polyethylene (PE) 1.8-3.7mm. In the actual operation, the three materials are mixed and integrated, which are processed to be firmly combined with the steel pipe to form an excellent anti-corrosive coating. The processing method is generally divided into two types: winding type and circular mold covering type.
3PE anti-corrosive steel pipe coating (three-layer polyethylene anti-corrosive coating) is a new anti-corrosive steel pipe coating produced by an ingenious combination of 2PE anti-corrosive coating in Europe and FBE coating widely used in North America. It has been recognized and used for more than ten years in the world.
The first layer of 3PE anti-corrosive steel pipe is epoxy powder anti-corrosive coating, and the middle layer is copolymerized adhesive with a branch structure functional group. The surface layer is high-density polyethylene anti-corrosive coating.
3LPE anti-corrosive coating combines the high impermeability and mechanical properties of epoxy resin and polyethylene. Up to now, it has been recognized as the best anti-corrosive coating with the best effect and performance in the world, which has been applied in many projects.
Advantages:
The common steel pipe will be severely corroded in the bad use environment, which will reduce the service life of the steel pipe. The service life of the anti-corrosion and heat preservation steel pipe is also relatively long. Generally, it can be used for about 30-50 years, and the correct installation and use can also reduce the maintenance cost of the pipe network. The anti-corrosion and heat preservation steel pipe can also be equipped with an alarm system, Automatic detection of pipe network leakage fault, accurate knowledge of fault location, and also automatic alarm.
3PE anti-corrosion and heat preservation steel pipes have good heat preservation performance, and the heat loss is only 25% of that of traditional pipes. Long-term operation can save a lot of resources, significantly reduce energy costs, and still have strong water-proof and corrosion-resistant ability. Moreover, it can be directly buried underground or in the water without an additional pipe trench, which is also simple, rapid, and comprehensive in construction. The cost is also relatively low, and it has good corrosion resistance and impact resistance under low-temperature conditions, and it can also be directly buried in frozen soil.
Application:
For 3PE anti-corrosion steel pipe, many people only know one thing and don’t know the other. Its function is really wide coverage. It is suitable for underground water supply and drainage, underground shotcreting, positive and negative pressure ventilation, gas drainage, fire sprinklers and other pipe networks. Waste residue and return water transmission pipeline for process water of thermal power plant. It has excellent applicability for the water supply pipeline of anti-spray and sprinkler systems. Power, communication, highway and other cable protection sleeve. It is suitable for high-rise building water supply, heat supply networks, waterworks, gas transmission, buried water transmission and other pipelines. Petroleum pipeline, chemical and pharmaceutical industry, printing and dyeing industry, etc. Sewage treatment discharge pipe, sewage pipe and biological pool anti-corrosion engineering. It can be said that 3PE anti-corrosion steel pipe is indispensable in the current construction of agricultural irrigation pipes, deep well pipes, drainage pipes and other network applications, and it is believed that through the extension of science and technology, it will still have more brilliant achievements in the future.
