PPR material and PE material are both common pipe materials. There are some differences and characteristics between them. The following is a comparative analysis application of PPR and PE materials:
Fields of application:
PPR and PE materials can be used for feed hoses, but their fields of application are different. PPR materials are mainly used in water supply and heating systems for buildings. And PE material is mainly used in municipal engineering field for water supply, drainage and gas pipeline system.
High temperature resistance
PPR material has better high temperature resistance than PE material and can withstand higher temperature. Therefore, PPR piping systems are more suitable in systems where it is necessary to transport hot or high temperature water.
Resistant to chemicals
PPR material has better resistance to corrosion to chemicals. The PPR pipeline system is therefore more suitable for transporting chemicals.
Thermal insulation properties
PE material has better thermal insulation than PPR material. Therefore, in piping systems requiring thermal insulation, PE piping systems are more appropriate.
Price list
The price of PPR material is relatively low. Therefore, a PPR pipeline system may be more affordable for some engineering projects with a limited budget.
Installation and maintenance
PPR hardware installation and maintenance is relatively simple and convenient, because its connection mode USES hot fusion connection, easy to operate and safe and reliable. And the connection mode of PE material is hot air welded, relatively complex and need some technical level.
Summary of the report
In short, the choice of piping materials requires an integrated consideration of application scenarios and specific requirements. In water supply and building heating systems, PPR material is more suitable. And in the field of municipal engineering in water, drainage and gas pipeline system, PE material is more suitable. In addition, it is necessary to take into account high temperature resistance of materials, chemical corrosion resistance, thermal insulation properties, price as well as installation and maintenance and other factors.
