Introduction

In recent years, the demand for high-quality raw materials in the pipe manufacturing industry has grown significantly, both in domestic and export markets. Among various polymers, High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) has become one of the most widely used materials, because of its excellent mechanical and chemical properties.

HDPE EX3, produced by AmirKabir Petrochemical Company, is an extrusion grade equivalent to PE100. This grade is specifically designed for the production of high pressure pipes and fittings, offering outstanding performance in water, gas, sewage, and industrial applications. With compliance to international standards, HDPE EX3 has gained a strong position in both local and foreign markets.

 

 

High Density Polyethylene EX3

Polyethylene (EX3) (GM 5010 T2N) is a type of colorless heavy polyethylene copolymer of PE100 class. These material EX3 grade with good ESCR and significant impact resistance for the production of pipes for drinking water , Agriculture and sewage as well as their various connections are used.

HDPE EX3 is a high density polyethylene grade developed for pipe extrusion applications. It provides an excellent balance of strength, flexibility, and chemical resistance, making it highly suitable for infrastructure projects with a service life of more than 50 years.

 

 

Features

Features of HDPE EX3 is good ESCR and acceptable impact resistance

• High mechanical strength: Withstands internal and external pressure without cracking
• Excellent ESCR (Environmental Stress Crack Resistance): Ensures long-term performance under stress
• Superior processability: Suitable for manufacturing pipes of different diameters and wall thicknesses with smooth surfaces
• Outstanding chemical resistance: Resistant to acids, bases, and industrial chemicals
• Thermal stability: Maintains performance under varying temperature conditions
• Good flexibility: Prevents fracture during installation and operation
• Long service life: Designed for a minimum of 50 years under standard operating conditions
• Resistance to corrosion and scaling: Advantage over steel and concrete pipes

 

Applications

The use of HDPE EX3 materials in the field of pipes is for drinking water, agriculture and sewage, as well as various fittings.

• Potable water supply pipelines in urban and rural networks
• Gas distribution pipelines (medium to high pressure, meeting safety standards)
• Sewage and wastewater pipelines in municipal and industrial projects
• Industrial fluid and chemical transportation in petrochemical plants and refineries
• Agricultural irrigation systems (drip and sprinkler irrigation)
• Firefighting and fire protection systems
• Mining projects for slurry and tailings transport
• Marine and underground pipelines, exposed to harsh environments

 

Advantages

 

• Cost-effective: Lower installation and maintenance costs compared to steel pipes
• Durability: Reliable long-term performance in infrastructure and industrial projects
• High safety: Resistant to sudden failure and cracking
• Easy installation: Lighter weight compared to metal pipes, easier transportation and handling
• Environmentally friendly: Recyclable material and safe for potable water use
• Versatile applications: Suitable for a wide range of industries and projects
• Low maintenance: Reduced costs due to resistance against corrosion
