The pipe inner wall can be protected by forming a paint film protective layer through multiple coating, lining, enamel, or composite pipe formed from strip material. When the pipe is small and long, it is difficult to form a paint film or lining or enamel due to the size and length limitations. It is also difficult to form a pipe from a composite material with a polymer surface layer and a metal base material, and it is difficult to make the metal surface layer of the composite pipe thinner, such as less than 0.3 mm. When the product has been used by the customer for a short time, the protective layer of the pipe inner wall is found to be partially damaged, and it is difficult to repair or impossible to repair, especially for small and long pipes. The entire device, such as a heat exchanger, may be scrapped. It is a good technical development direction to firmly paste a thick film or a film or a membrane on the inner wall of the pipe to be protected.
