Chlorinated Water Induced Aging of Pipe Grade Polypropylene Random Copolymers

Chlorinated Water Induced Aging of Pipe Grade Polypropylene Random Copolymers

Polypropylene random copolymers (PP-R) are common materials for pressurized hot water pipes. In many pipe systems, potable water is disinfected by chlorine to prevent waterborne diseases. This paper deals with hot chlorinated water induced aging of two PP-R grades with varying morphology. One materi...
