Today, these gases are used to produce polypropylene, thus drastically reducing atmospheric pollution. The production process also eliminates the potential pollution of rivers, streams and lakes, due to the use of water in a closed cooling cycle. T\, Recyclable Polypropylene is commonly recycled, and has the number "5" as its PP resin identification code, allowing efficient separation of different polymer types for recycling The raw material.The recycled raw materials has to meet the manufacturing requirements of the environment commission, which stipulate that there is a minimum, use of natural resources, reduced emissions, a long working lifespan and optimum re-use. We recycle all production waste and cutoffs, noting that there is a high demand for polypropylene for recycling purposes as it can be recycled more than 50 times without any reduction in strength. Superior Polypropylene (PP), also known as polypropene, is a thermoplastic polymer used in a wide variety of applications, it is unusually resistant JK. | to many chemical solvents, bases and acids. This allows polypropylene to be used as an engineering plastic. Polypropylene is most commonly used for plastic moldings: it is injected into a mold while molten, forming complex shapes at relatively low cost and high volume, such as pipes and fittings. Durable Polypropylene products last much longer than those made from most similar materials. They are easy to wipe clean, hard wearing and withstand. aging and extreme temperatures. Being more durable than alternative materials, products made from polypropylene don't need to be replaced as often, which means saving cost, resources, our environment and our future. Ris designed for hot and cold water application and itis the latest and ‘most suitable system for all plumbing applications. Besides plumbing, also itcan be used for a variety of applications like air distribution, radiator heating, ete. The specific chemical structure of af provides well balanced | ‘mechanical properties and superior long term heat resistance, ensuring the water flowing through which does not have any negative biological effect.bai Our Services Customer Service: 19678 Customer Care We support our customers in making cost effective and correct use of our pipes and fittings range.

This new material is designated by ISO 1043-1and has been added to DIN 8078 and EN ISO 15874. * PP-RCT made a big breakthrough in plastic pipes due to the very small crystallites of microscopic hexagonal structure which result in high pressure- temperature rating compared to traditional PP-R pipes. * Thanks to its features and performance, it has been able to win the trust of designers and customers. ‘The advantage of PP-RCT Higher Pressure temperature rating. Up to 2576 weight reduction for same pressure class. igher flow rate (water capacity) for same outer diameter. Easier in handling, transportation and installation. Higher safety factor.

Goods that have not been tested do not get released for production. The incoming raw material is tested according to ISO 1133.i) iy Quality Assurance 35 In-Process Inspection The quality plan requires that all inspections are carried out at the beginning as well as during production. As production starts all relevant data are checked by the Quality Assurance Department. Pre-production samples are tested by the laboratory technicians for: «= Surface finish. » Dimensional accuracy. = Check Marking. «= Data from extrusion and injection moulding machines. «= The product is only released if optimal test results are achieved. 3.6 Process Control We have an extensive quality control process in the field of extrusion, which uses Ultrasonic measurements and data recording. This enables constant observation and control of production. Ultrasonics automatically measure and report any deviations in tolerance of the cutting device on the extrusion machine, thus isolating any substandard product. This ensures that only perfect quality products are packed and stored. All data received during production is studied and analyzed, in details. 3.7 Final inspection QC requires that inspections and tests are carried out on all finished products. The results are all documented. Finished products are only released to storage when all tests and inspections have conformed to the authorized procedures and specifications. The final inspection test includes a time laps procedure. This measures the usability of the products in their field of application, as well as removing production weaknesses. These inspections are the method for quality assurance during production and for design tests. The results document the system quality and serve to optimize the manufacturing process. The final inspection covers the following main Tests: Dimensional This test includes measuring of outside diameter, inside diameter, thickness, length and ovality according to DIN 8077 standard.MFl (Melt Flow Index) TestThis testis used for simulating the flow movement of the material in extruder and injection machines before processing. The test provides unit temperature and time based information on the material’ s flow index. Test results provide information on possible behavior of the material during manufacturing process. This test carried out according to ISO 1133 standard. Density Test Density tested according to DIN EN ISO 1183 standards. The material is passed through MFI device and its weight is determined separately air and in a fluid with known density according to standard. After these weight values are obtained, the density of the material is determined. Impact Test This test determines the amount of energy absorption and possible applicable force on a unit area by free fall of materials with different weight. This test provides information about the behavior of material against various loads in sudden impacts. This involves measuring the ability to absorb impact energy of 10 product samples. The greater the energy absorbed, expressed in Joules, the greater is the resistance to impact.
