PPR Pipe Fittings for Residential Use

Are PPR pipes resistant to corrosion?

1. Introducción

For industrial and commercial customers in sectors like water treatment, chemical processing, and construction, corrosion resistance is a critical factor in material selection. This guide explores PPR pipes’ ability to withstand corrosive environments, supported by technical data, certifications, and real-world applications.

2. PPR Material Science

2.1 Molecular Structure

  • Random copolymerization of propylene and ethylene creates a non-polar matrix
  • Inert chemical nature prevents reactions with most substances

2.2 Key Properties

  • pH Stability: Handles extremes from 1 (strong acid) to 14 (strong alkali)
  • Solvent Resistance: Resists alcohols, esters, and ketones
  • Oxidation Protection: Stabilizers prevent degradation from free radicals

3. Corrosion Resistance Ratings

3.1 Acids

ChemicalConcentrationCompatibilidadTest Standard
HydrochloricUp to 30%ExcellentASTM D543
SulfuricUp to 50%GoodISO 175
NitricUp to 20%FairEN 12201

3.2 Alkalis

  • Sodium hydroxide (50%): Excellent resistance
  • Potassium hydroxide (40%): Good performance
  • Ammonium hydroxide (25%): Moderate tolerance

3.3 Chlorinated Water

  • Chlorine gas (Cl₂): PPR-lined steel pipes recommended
  • Chloramine (NH₂Cl): Long-term resistance verified
