[0019] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the present invention. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The high-strength anticorrosive and antibacterial polyethylene pipe involved in the present invention is not limited to the various structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Reference Figure 1-5 The present invention provides a high-strength anti-corrosion and antibacterial polyethylene pipe, including an outermost reinforcement layer 1, and also includes a fixed net 2 fixedly connected to the reinforcement layer 1; a skeleton layer 3, fixedly connected to the fixed net 2; a lower partition layer 4, fixedly connected to the skeleton layer 3; an inner layer 5, fixedly connected to the lower partition layer 4; the pipe is an integral composite structure and cannot be disassembled.

[0021] Specifically, although traditional polyethylene pipes have been widely used in some engineering fields, they have some problems, such as weak structural strength, poor corrosion resistance and unsatisfactory antibacterial effect. After long-term use, traditional polyethylene pipes will break, the inner layer 5 will be corroded, and dirt will adhere to and accumulate. Especially in the food field, such problems will seriously affect the safety of food quality. Therefore, the requirements for polyethylene pipes in today's society are gradually increasing. Polyethylene pipes made of multi-layer structures and composite materials are becoming more and more popular due to their more comprehensive performance.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-2 The reinforcing layer 1 is a mixture of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and resin, the outer wall is coated with epoxy resin, and nano-silicon particles are evenly dispersed in the reinforcing layer 1.

[0023] Specifically, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is a linear polyethylene material with extremely high molecular weight. Its molecular weight is usually between 1.5 million and 6 million, and can even reach 10 million. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has excellent wear resistance, which is the most outstanding among all plastics, even exceeding some metal materials. In addition, it also has extremely high impact resistance, self-lubrication and chemical corrosion resistance.

[0024] The reinforcement layer 1 is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, which utilizes the excellent properties of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, such as high wear resistance, impact absorption capacity and good chemical stability. The resin mixture serves as an adhesive, which not only fixes the structure of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, but also increases the toughness and bearing capacity of the material. Nano-silicon particles, due to their nano-scale particle size, can effectively fill the microscopic gaps between the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and the resin, thereby improving the sealing and mechanical strength of the finished product, especially in resisting the expansion of tiny cracks.

[0025] Epoxy resin covers the outermost layer to form a solid protective film. This layer of epoxy resin not only enhances the chemical corrosion resistance of the pipe, but also effectively protects the internal structure from the influence of the external environment and extends the service life of the overall material.

[0026] Through this multi-level, multi-component distribution design, the advantages of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and other auxiliary materials can be fully utilized to achieve efficient protection and long-term durability of the pipeline reinforcement layer 1.

[0027] Reference Figure 4-5 The fixed net 2 is a mesh structure with a wire diameter of 1.0-1.2 mm, and the mesh holes are rectangular. It is located between the reinforcement layer 1 and the lower partition layer 4 and is fixedly connected to the skeleton layer 3.

[0028] Specifically, the fixed net 2 is a wire mesh made of fine steel wire with a diameter of 1.2 mm, and the mesh is rectangular. The fixed net 2 is arranged on the reinforcement layer 1, which can enhance the pressure resistance, tensile strength and puncture resistance of the pipeline; the fixed net 2 can effectively improve the overall pressure bearing capacity of the pipeline, so that the pipeline can withstand higher internal pressure. In urban gas pipelines, this feature is particularly important, because gas pipelines usually have to withstand a certain pressure. The presence of the fixed net 2 can effectively prevent the pipeline from rupturing due to excessive internal pressure; the fixed net 2 can significantly enhance the impact resistance and puncture resistance of the pipeline. When the pipeline is hit by external force or punctured by hard objects, the fixed net 2 can disperse the impact force and reduce pipeline damage.

[0029] Reference Figure 4-5The skeleton layer 3 includes a skeleton terminal 32 fixedly connected to both ends of the reinforcement layer 1 and the fixed net 2, a female end groove 31 opened on the skeleton terminal 32, a male end convex ring 34 fixedly connected to the skeleton terminal 32, a fixed interface 33 fixedly connected to the skeleton terminal 32, and a hard skeleton 35 fixedly connected to the skeleton terminal 32; the hard skeleton 35 is a mesh structure with a mesh wire diameter of 2-4mm, and the mesh is diamond-shaped.

[0030] Specifically, the skeleton layer 3 is the most important force-bearing structure in the entire pipeline. The hard skeleton 35 is high-carbon steel with a mesh diameter of 3 mm. It is quenched and tempered to form a martensitic structure with high hardness and good bending resistance. It can strengthen the pipeline when it is subjected to external forces and reduce damage caused by bending.

[0031] Among them, the hard skeleton 35 is tangent to the inner wall of the fixed net 2 and the outer wall of the lower partition 4, and the gap formed is filled with carbon fiber. The carbon fiber is added by wet mixing. The fixed net 2 and the hard skeleton 35 are compounded with the carbon fiber together. The high strength and tensile and compressive resistance of the carbon fiber are compounded with the hardness and bending resistance of high-carbon steel, so that the pipeline has stronger mechanical properties and can be competent for more complex usage scenarios.

[0032] The skeleton terminals 32 are the two ends of the pipeline. The skeleton terminals 32 can be used to fix the structures of different layers to prevent separation. The fixed interface 33 fixes and controls the spacing between the hard skeleton 35 and the fixed net 2. The male end convex ring 34 and the female end groove 31 can be mortise-jointed to extend the length of the pipeline. The strength of the mortise-joint is not high, but it can facilitate simple fixation by construction workers, which is convenient for subsequent pipeline laying and fixed connection.

[0033] Reference Figure 2-5 The lower partition layer 4 separates the skeleton layer 3 and the inner layer 5. The lower partition layer 4 has a dense structure and does not participate in providing the mechanical properties of the pipeline. The outer wall of the lower partition layer 4 is a rough surface and the inner wall is a smooth surface.

[0034] Specifically, the lower partition layer 4 separates the high carbon steel and carbon fiber of the skeleton layer 3 from the inner layer 5 to prevent water molecules or other substances from entering the skeleton layer 3 and corroding the skeleton layer 3. The lower partition layer 4 is a polymer such as polyethyleneimine (PEI) and polyurethane (PU), and a dense coating is formed by process means. The outer wall is in contact with the unpolished carbon fiber layer and has a rough surface. The inner wall is polished and has a smooth surface, so that the lower partition layer 4 is tightly connected to the carbon fiber and will not fall off. The inner wall is smooth, which is convenient for connection with the inner layer 5.

[0035] Reference Figure 2-5 The inner layer 5 is coated on the inner wall of the lower partition layer 4, and the inner layer 5 is a nano silver-loaded antibacterial coating, and an antiscalant and an antiseptic coating are added at the same time.

[0036] Specifically, nano antibacterial agents such as metallic silver or metallic gold are added to the inner layer 5 to effectively inhibit bacterial growth, and the carbon fiber is surface modified using active silver ions, and then the modified carbon fiber is melt-blended with high-density polyethylene and extruded. This method combines the antibacterial properties of silver ions with the high strength of carbon fibers, significantly improving the mechanical strength and antibacterial properties of the pipeline.

[0037] In order to prevent scaling on the pipeline surface from affecting the flow capacity and sanitary performance, anti-scaling agents and preservatives are added to the inner layer 5. These additives can effectively reduce the dirt deposition on the pipeline surface and extend the service life of the pipeline. In actual applications, after adding the anti-scaling agent, the scaling on the pipeline surface is significantly reduced, and the maintenance cost of the pipeline in long-term use is greatly reduced. This is especially important for industrial pipeline systems that require long-term stable operation.

[0038] During use, the use of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and resin mixture significantly improves the pressure resistance and impact resistance of the pipeline. The fixed net 2 and the hard skeleton 35 provide the pipeline with excellent structural stability, increase the overall rigidity of the pipeline, and help maintain the shape of the pipeline to prevent deformation due to soil movement or pressure changes underground or in harsh environments.

[0039] The nano silver-loaded antibacterial coating of the inner layer 5 has a strong antibacterial effect, which keeps the internal environment of the pipeline clean and hygienic, and helps to keep the transportation of drinking water or other fluids with high hygiene requirements clean. The added antiscalant and antiseptic coating can effectively prevent scaling and corrosion inside the pipeline, reduce the deposition of pollutants such as scale and rust, extend the service life of the pipeline, and maintain its flow capacity.

[0040] Polymers such as polyethyleneimine and polyurethane have good chemical stability and can resist corrosion from a variety of chemical media, helping pipelines maintain stable performance when transporting highly corrosive fluids, reducing maintenance requirements and potential safety risks.
