Abstract:
The invention relates to a fibre-reinforced hollow body (10) for channelling media, in particular, chemically and/or mechanically aggressive media, for example, of the chemical industry and/or the process industry, having a base body (20), comprising a material containing fibres, and having a protective layer (40) for protecting the hollow body (10) against chemical and/or mechanical attacks. The protective layer (40) is formed from a fibre-free material or a substantially fibre-free material. The invention relates to a chemical composition for forming a protective layer (40) of a hollow body (10) for channelling media, in particular chemically and/or mechanically aggressive media, said protective layer protecting against chemical and/or mechanical attacks. Furthermore, the invention relates to method for producing a hollow body (10) for channelling media, in particular chemically and/or mechanically aggressive media, for example, of the chemical industry and/or the process industry.
Abstract:

The replaceable component is disposed in an inlet or outlet of the pipe or fitting so as to form a continuous bore lined with a polymer.
Abstract:
This disclosure relates generally to corrugated pipe, and more particularly to corrugated pipe with a reinforcing stiffener. The corrugated pipe may include an axially extended bore defined by a corrugated outer wall having axially adjacent, outwardly-extending corrugation crests, separated by corrugation valleys. In some embodiments, a stiffener may be positioned within the corrugation valleys. In other embodiments, a stiffener may be positioned within the corrugation crests.

Embodiments of the present invention provide composite waste and water transport elements that can be designed having various unique shapes and methods for their manufacture.
Abstract:
The present invention is a multi-layer tube comprising at least two layers having an (a) layer containing an aliphatic polyamide composition (A) and a (b) layer containing a semi-aromatic polyamide composition (B) containing a specific semi-aromatic polyamide (B1), wherein the aliphatic polyamide composition (A) contains a specific amount of an aliphatic polyamide (A1) and a specific amount of an elastomer polymer (A2) containing an unsaturated compound having a carboxyl group and/or acid anhydride group, and the product of the terminal amino group concentration [X] of the aliphatic polyamide (A1) per g of the aliphatic polyamide composition (A) and the total concentration [Y] of the carboxyl group and acid anhydride group of the elastomer polymer (A2) per g of the aliphatic polyamide composition (A) is a specific amount.
Abstract:
The composite tube comprises a tubular arrangement of knitted fiber characterized by a plurality of interlocking loops. The tubular knitted pattern allows for variable electrical, mechanical and geometrical tube options. A matrix material is applied over the knitted fiber pattern and is allowed to cure. The matrix material may include a combination of resin and epoxy constituents.The matrix material may be applied by a vacuum bag molding process. The flexible knitted reinforcing layer allows use of an inflatable bladder to hold the reinforcing layer in the desired shape, thereby facilitating tube constructions of varying shapes and diameters. Continuous application of the matrix material avoids overlapping seams that are prone to delamination. Methods are provided for reinforcing the composite tube construction including one or more folded layers of knitted fiber, a reinforcing wrap made of knitted fiber, and an inflatable balloon element in combination with a layer(s) of knitted fiber.
Abstract:
A composite pipe comprises a polyetheretherketone innermost pipe around which a reinforcing overwrap is arranged. A protective sheath surrounds the overwrap. Such a composite pipe may be made by selecting a polyetheretherketone pipe having an outer region having a crystallinity of less than 25%; overlaying the selected pipe with overwrap; and subjecting the combination to heat, thereby causing the crystallinity of the outer region of the polyetheretherketone pipe to increase. The method reduces the risk of pipe failure.
Abstract:
Pipe sections and methods for forming pipe sections are disclosed. A pipe section includes a hollow body, the hollow body having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface defining an interior. The pipe section further includes a barrier layer surrounding the hollow body, the barrier layer having an inner surface and an outer surface. The barrier layer is formed from a polyarylene sulfide composition. The polyarylene sulfide composition includes a polyarylene sulfide and a crosslinked impact modifier. Such pipe sections exhibit high strength characteristics and flexibility as well as resistance to degradation, even in extreme temperature environments, while maintaining desirable processing characteristics.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a highly heat-resistant multi-layer molded article having excellent adhesion between layers and which can be inexpensively produced and easily recycled. The multi-layer molded article comprises an innermost layer including a first polyarylene sulfide-derived resin composition having 95% to 91% by mass of a polyarylene sulfide-derived resin and 5% to 9% by mass of an olefinic (olefine-derived) elastomer, and an outer layer disposed on an outer-side of the innermost layer, including a second polyarylene sulfide-derived resin composition having 5 to 35 parts by mass of reinforced fibers and 100 parts by mass of a third polyarylene sulfide-derived resin composition having 95% to 80% by mass of a polyarylene sulfide-derived resin and 5% to 20% by mass of an olefinic elastomer.
Abstract:
