Material properties 2 Material properties

Polyethylene, PE for short, is a semi crystalline thermoplastic and is a generic term for different kinds of PE. By colouring with 2% of "carbon black" the PE gets its black colour. The following kinds of PE are generally used: LD-PE (Density 0.90-0.91 g/cm3) MD-PE (Density 0.93-0.94 g/cm3) HD-PE (Density 0.94-0.97 g/cm3) In pipe systems generally only HD-PE is used. HDPE has a high resistance against acids, bases and aqueous salt-solutions. Below 60C it is practically unsolvable in organic solutions. HD-PE has a good resistance against light ionised radiation without becoming radioactive itself. In table 2.1.1 the properties and benefits of the Akatherm HD-PE are highlighted. In the technical manual the term HD-PE is also substituted by PE.

2.2 Chemical resistance
In table 2.2.1 the chemical resistance of HDPE is depicted per medium at a number of different temperatures. In general we can define the resistance as follows: For standard soil and waste systems the resistance of HD-PE is perfect. In these pipes systems hardly ever aggressive fluids are drained. When transporting chemical waste waters in laboratories and the chemical industry the following factors have to be taken in account: - The medium - The concentration of this medium - Temperature - Duration of exposure - Quantity The chemical resistance list of the electrometric seals is to aid in establishing the suitability of a certain seal. This is only an indication of its suitability. The chemical deterioration of the polymer chain can lead to changes in the mechanical characteristics like tensile strength and elongation at break etc. The data is valid for a temperature of 20C. At higher temperatures or longer duration of exposure a more aggressive condition can occur which shortens the lifespan of the seal. Used symbols PE pipe and fittings: + Resistant, based on the test carried out HDPE is in general a suitable material for this application. / Limited resistance, further research necessary no resistance Empty field No data available Elastomeric seals: 1 Little or no effect, volume change < 10%. In heavy conditions this elastomere can show a small increase in volume and /or loss of physical properties. 2 Possible change of physical properties, volume change 10%-20%, the elastomere can show increase in volume and a change in physical properties but can be suitable for static applications. 3 Noticeable change of physical properties, large change in volume, and physical properties. 4 Elastomeric seal is not suitable.

2.4 Condensation
Condensation is caused when the water vapor in the air quells down on a colder surface. This depends on a number of factors: - The ambient temperature (the warmer the air the more water vapor it can contain) - The humidity of the air - Temperature of the pipe surface With the aid of the Mollier-diagram and a detailed calculation it can be determined when and with what kind of insulation the pipe needs to be insulated. Polyethylene conducts the heat very poorly. During short periods of transporting cold fluids, no condensation will take place. There are a few rules of thumb: Always insulate: - Pipe system above lowered ceiling - Pipe system in a unconditioned building - Pipe system in storage of vulnerable stock (paper) No insulation necessary - Pipe system in conditioned environment (with air circulation heaters, fans etc.) unless requested by consultant. When the choice is made to insulate, it has to be carried out on the complete pipe system. The insulation has to be a closed circuit. Please check local standards for appropriate action.

2.5 Fire hazard

HD-PE burns, but is not classified as flammable. Principal toxicant in the smoke is carbon monoxide. The ignition temperature of HD-PE lies above 300C. In designing new buildings a lot of attention goes to compartmenting the building. This is to prevent the fire from spreading to a neighboring room. The solution for the wall and ceiling penetrations is the use of a fire collar. Installed around the Akatherm pipe they squeeze off the pipe when a certain temperature is reached and close the penetration hermetic. Depending on local regulations all wall and ceiling penetrations have to be safeguarded in this way above a certain diameter of pipe.

2.3 Sound
In international standards usually a maximum sound pressure level emitted by sanitary installations 30dB is permissible in rooms requiring protection, e.g. living rooms and bedrooms. This level is also applicable when non-living areas are concerned like office buildings, hospitals etc. Sound attenuation is generally included in the local building code. The stack and its channel are the most important sound emitters in a soil and waste system. Consequently all insulating measures take place on the stack. A difference needs to be made between contact sound and air transmitted sound. To prevent sound hinder by transmission through air the material of the channel and its insulation is of importance. When dealing with contact sound the wall which is used to fix the brackets onto and the brackets themselves are of importance.
