EVOH oxygen barrier pipes with excellent performance are widely used in the radiator connection, cold hot water, floor heating and air-conditioning pipe, industrial pipeline, fire pipeline, marine pipeline and other fields.
Pipe Type and Application:
According to the pipe layer structure and plastic material used can be divided into following type:
EVOH is shorten of Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol Polymer. Oxygen barrier are used in flexible plastic tubing for hydronic heating applications to protect the hydronic heating system components from corrosion.
The main suppliers for EVOH material are KURARAY and NIPPON GOHSEI from Japan.
How to produce EVOH oxygen barrier pipe?
In a 3-layer construction, the EVOH barrier layer is extruded on outer pipe surface and bonded to the pipe using a adhesive layer. The three layers EVOH composite pipe, such as PEXb/EVOH and PERT/EVOH pipes are produced by co-extrusion technology with three extruder and co-extrusion die head.
Those three extruder are one for inner plastic layer, one for adhesive layer and one for outer EVOH layer.
For five layer pipe, the barrier layer is actually co-extruded in a middle layer of the pipe so that it is fully protected during installation and in service. Four number extruders and one co-extrusion die head are required for this pipe production.
Weifang kaide plastics machinery Co., Ltd are professional for this kind of multi-layer composite pipe extrusion machine manufacturing, with advanced technology and plenty practical experience. It’s the leading supplier in China.
