AI Technical Summary
Existing building drainage pipes generate excessive noise during sewage discharge, and common noise reduction measures are difficult to promote in civil buildings due to complex construction, increased system weight, higher costs, and poor corrosion resistance.
The HDPE pipe is designed with an inner layer, a middle sound-absorbing layer, and an outer layer, all co-extruded together. The inner and outer layers consist of HDPE, antioxidants, lubricants, and pigments. The middle sound-absorbing layer consists of HDPE, modified mica powder, Expancel pre-expanded microspheres, maleic anhydride-grafted polyethylene, elastomers, and lubricants. Through co-extrusion molding, the pipe absorbs noise by utilizing the synergistic effect of the microporous network formed by the Expancel pre-expanded microspheres and the sheet damping effect of the modified mica powder.
It significantly reduces noise levels, improves high-temperature resistance and toughness, lowers production costs, and reduces pipe weight, while meeting the requirements for quiet operation and weather resistance.

Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of building drainage pipes, in particular to a super-silence HDPE pipe for building drainage and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] During the sewage process, the water column falling at high speed continuously collides with the pipe wall, inducing radial vibration of the pipe wall and radiating air sound to the indoor space. At the same time, the vibration is transmitted axially along the pipe wall to the support and floor, causing structure sound pollution. The actual measurement shows that the A-weighted sound pressure level of the ordinary HDPE drainage pipe (SDR17, DN110) under the flow of 1 L / s can reach 54-60 dB, and the instantaneous peak value exceeds 65 dB, which is obviously higher than the limit value of ≤30 dB of the bedroom at night in GB 50118.
