Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for regulating the cross-linking degree of a cross-linked polyethylene pipe and a method for evaluating the cross-linking degree of a cross-linked polyethylene pipe. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the failure of ground carbon steel pipelines due to internal corrosion has occurred frequently during the development of oil fields, which has posed a severe challenge to the safety management of oil field sites, and corrosion control is urgent. In order to solve the above problems, a variety of composite structural pipes with thermoplastic linings have been developed and promoted in oil fields. With the increasingly complex service conditions of oil fields, more stringent service temperatures and media, in order to meet the production needs of oil fields, higher requirements are put forward for the long-term safe service of flexible composite pipes. The use of cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) instead of ordinary polyethylene (PE) as the lining material of flexible composite pipes can significantly improve the temperature resistance and oil and gas swelling resistance of the composite pipe lining under the premise of controllable raw material costs, and has been promoted in oil fields. In the cross-linking process of PE, linear or slightly branched polymers are converted into a network molecular structure through chemical substances or high-energy rays, and chemical bonds are established between molecules. The cross-linked PE not only improves heat resistance, wear resistance, and mechanical strength, but also improves environmental stress cracking resistance and creep resistance, and increases service life.

[0003] At present, the raw materials for producing PEX pipes are mainly silane cross-linked polyethylene (PEX-B), and the production equipment is mainly the pipe extrusion system. The raw materials of silane cross-linked polyethylene (PEX-B) are divided into A material and B material. A material is silane grafted PE, accounting for 95%, and B material is catalytic masterbatch, accounting for 5%. During the extrusion production, A and B materials are mixed and then extruded. After extrusion, PEX pipes are boiled and cross-linked. The temperature and time of boiling determine the cross-linking degree of PEX pipes. The cross-linking degree of PEX pipes is the key factor in improving their performance. In summary, regulating and evaluating the cross-linking degree of cross-linked polyethylene pipes is of great significance to the promotion and application of PEX pipes in oil fields.
