Who invented the PPR hot water pipe?

There is no specific inventor of the PPR hot water pipe.

PPR is the abbreviation of English random **** polypropylene (Polypropylene-Random). Commonly known as the three types of polypropylene. PPR pipe is galvanized pipe, UPVC water supply pipe, aluminum-plastic pipe, PE pipe, PE-X pipe, PE-RT pipe of the new generation of products. Due to its use of random **** polymerization technology, so that the strength of polypropylene, high temperature resistance is well ensured, so as to become the main force of the water pipe material.

PPR water pipe development

PPR pipe and traditional cast iron pipe, galvanized steel pipe, cement pipe and other pipes, compared with energy saving and material saving, environmental protection, lightweight and high strength, corrosion resistance, smooth inner wall does not scale, construction and maintenance of simple, long service life, etc., are widely used in building water supply and drainage, urban and rural water supply and drainage, city gas, electric power and fiber optic cable sheathing, industrial fluid transport agriculture Irrigation and other construction, municipal, industrial and agricultural fields.

In recent years, with the construction industry, municipal engineering, water conservancy engineering, agriculture and industry and other industries market demand continues to increase, China's PPR pipe industry has shown a high-speed development trend. 2009 plastic pipe production of 5.804 million tons, an increase of 18.9% year-on-year growth in January-September 2010, the production of 5.528 million tons of plastic pipes, an increase of 28.23% year-on-year growth The production volume of plastic pipes from January to September 2010 was 58,000 tons, an increase of 28.23%. At the same time, with the consumers on the product of environmental protection, health, durability and other aspects of the quality requirements continue to improve, China's plastic pipe in the production increase at the same time, product quality level continues to improve, the industry's technological progress continues to accelerate, the brand scale enterprises continue to increase, new materials, new structural varieties continue to emerge, the emergence of advanced system design concepts are endless, the product's functionality is more obvious, the application areas to be further broadened. The application areas have been further broadened. Analysis shows that China's plastic pipe market share in the proportion of all pipes has exceeded 30%.

By 2015, in the country's new construction, reconstruction and expansion projects, 85% of the building drainage pipes using plastic pipes, 80% of the building rainwater drainage pipes using plastic pipes, the use of plastic pipes in urban drainage pipes reached 50%, 85% of the building water supply, hot water supply and heating pipes using plastic pipes, 80% of the city's water supply pipelines (DN400mm or less) using plastic pipes, villages and towns 90% of the water supply pipe using plastic pipe, city gas plastic pipe (low and medium pressure pipe) applications reached 40%, 90% of the building wire threading sheath pipe using plastic pipe. It is predicted that during the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, China's plastic pipe production will remain at a growth rate of about 10%, by 2015, the expected national production of plastic pipes will be close to 12 million tons, plastic pipes in the country's various types of pipes in the market share of more than 60%.
