AI Technical Summary
Existing continuous fiber reinforced thermosetting pipes suffer from problems such as resin dripping, splashing, and volatilization polluting the environment during manufacturing, as well as being fragile, having poor impact resistance, being difficult to recycle, and having complex and costly processes.
Continuous fiber-reinforced thermoplastic spiral pipes are manufactured by impregnating a prepolymer containing a photoinitiator or a free radical initiator with continuous fibers and initiating polymerization with an ultraviolet lamp. The flexibility and viscosity of the liquid resin are used for winding, and interlayer bonding is achieved by combining low-temperature polymerization technology.
It achieves zero resin dripping and volatilization, fast polymerization speed, good material flexibility, good interlayer adhesion, and better impact resistance than thermosetting pipes. It is suitable for large-scale production and can be recycled.
