17、), or the “spray-up” manufactur-ing processes (where resin and chopped glass fibers are sprayedunder pressure), or a combination of the two. The resultinglaminate is then consolidated by rolling and cured without theapplication of pressure.3.2.2 fiberglass pipe, na tubular product containing glassfi

18、ber reinforcements embedded in or surrounded by curedthermosetting resin. The composite structure may containgranular or platelet fillers, thixotropic agents, pigments, ordyes. Thermoplastic or thermosetting liners may be included.3.2.3 polyester, nresins produced by the polycondensationof dihydroxy

19、 glycols and dibasic organic acids or anhydrides,wherein at least one component contributes ethylenic unsatu-ration yielding resins that can be compounded with styrolmonomers and reacted to give highly crosslinked thermosetcopolymers.3.2.4 vinyl ester, nresins characterized by reactive unsatu-ration

20、 located predominately in terminal positions that can becompounded with styrol monomers and reacted to give highlycrosslinked thermoset copolymers.4. Materials and ManufactureNOTE 3Specification C582 provides additional information on thematerials and manufacturing of contactmolded laminates.NOTE 4F

21、iberglass pipe intended for use in the transport of potablewater should be evaluated and certified as safe for this purpose by a testingagency acceptable to the local health authority. The evaluation should bein accordance with requirements for chemical extraction, taste, and odorthat are no less re

22、strictive than those included in National SanitationFoundation (NSF) Standard 61. The seal or mark of the laboratory makingthe evaluation should be included on the fiberglass pipe.4.1 Resin System:4.1.1 The resin used shall be a commercial grade, corrosion-resistant polyester that has been determine

23、d to be acceptablefor the service either by test, (see Practice C581), or byprevious documented service. Where service conditions havenot been evaluated a suitable resin may also be selected byagreement between manufacturer and purchaser.4.1.1.1 The use of one resin in the corrosion barrier and adif

24、ferent resin in the structural layer (see Section 6) is permit-ted with the acceptance of the purchaser.4.1.2 Additives, such as additional styrene, fillers, dyes,pigments, or flame retardants may be used when agreed uponbetween the fabricator and purchaser. Thixotropic agents maybe added to the res

25、in for viscosity control.NOTE 5The addition of fillers, dyes, pigments, flame retardants, andthixotropic agents may interfere with visual inspection of laminate quality.NOTE 6Chemical resistance can be affected by the catalyst/promotersystem, diluents, dyes, fillers, flame retardants, or thixotropic

26、 agents usedin the resin.NOTE 7Antimony compounds or other fire-retardant agents may beadded to halogenated resins for improved fire resistance, if agreed uponbetween the manufacturer and the purchaser. These compounds do notimprove the flame retardancy of non-halogenated resins.4.1.3 Ultraviolet Ab

27、sorbers may be added for improvedweather resistance when agreed upon between the manufac-turer and the purchaser.4.1.4 Resin Pastes, used where necessary to fill crevices atjoints prior to applying the joint laminate shall not be subjectto the limitations of 4.1.3. Pastes shall be made with resin an

28、dfillers. The resin used in the paste must be compatible with theresin used in the pipe and fittings.4.2 Fiber Reinforcements:4.2.1 Surfacing Mat (Veil) is a thin mat of fine fibers usedprimarily to produce a smooth and corrosionresistant resin-rich surface on a reinforced plastic laminate.4.2.1.1 V

29、eils are made from chemical resistant (type “C”)glass or organic fiber. The use of an organic-fiber surface matis recommended for environments that attack glass. The veilused in a laminate shall be determined to be acceptable for thechemical service either by Practice C581 or by verified casehistory

30、.4.2.1.2 The veil shall be a minimum of 10 mils in drythickness and produce a thickness of 0.010 to 0.020 in. (0.25 to0.50 mm) when saturated with resin.NOTE 8The primary chemical resistance of the RTR pipe is providedby the resin. In combination with the cured resin, the surfacing veil helpsdetermi

31、ne the thickness of the resin-rich layer, and reduces microcracking.4.2.2 Chopped-strand Reinforcements shall be “E”-type or“ECR”-type glass fibers 1 to 2 in. (25 to 50 mm) long appliedin a uniform layer with random orientation. The fibers shallhave a sizing compatible with the selected resin. Chopp

32、edstrand reinforcements may be purchased and applied as a mator as continuous strand roving which is chopped into shortlengths and sprayed onto the laminate in a process known as“spray up.” Either form is most commonly applied in layersweighing 112 oz/ft2(450 g m2) although other weights areavailabl

33、e and may be used.4.2.3 Woven Roving, shall be “E”-type or “ECR”-type glassroving, woven into a fabric. The sizing on the roving shall becompatible with the resin. The most common woven rovinghasa5by4weave and a weight of 24 oz/yd2(832 g/m2).4.2.4 Non-woven Roving “E type or “ECR” glass reinforc-ing

34、 fabrics such as biaxials and uni-directionals may be used inspecial applications such as reinforcing tees and other fittingsor to improve the physical properties of the laminate in aspecific direction.4.2.5 Multiple Layer Reinforcements are fabrics composedof two or more layers of reinforcement com

35、bined into onefabric. The most common form is one layer of 112 oz/ft2chopped strand mat combined with one layer of 24 oz/yd2woven roving. The pipe manufacturer must use extra caution toensure proper laminate quality is maintained when usingmultiple layer reinforcements.5. Design5.1 Design Basis:D604

36、1 1125.1.1 Class AFor pipe to be manufactured using Type I orType II laminates as described in Specification C582, theUltimate Tensile Stresses shown in Specification C582 may beused for the design basis.5.1.2 Class BFor pipe manufactured with other than TypeI or Type II laminates (in accordance wit

37、h Specification C582),or for Ultimate Tensile Stresses greater than those shown inC582, testing in accordance with 10.5 or 10.6 is required toestablish a design basis for each laminate type used by the pipemanufacturer. Testing shall be performed on a sample laminateor pipe of the same type and cons

38、truction as will be used on theactual pipe and fittings. The thickness of the laminate samplewill be38 in. (9.5 mm) or the maximum thickness to beprovided in the pipe and fittings, whichever is less. If testing inaccordance with 10.6, testing is required in both directions ifthe reinforcement is not

39、 applied equally in both directions. Thelaminate sample shall not include a corrosion barrier. Lami-nates greater than38 in. (9.5 mm) thick are to be constructedwith standard repeating sequences of reinforcement such asthose described in Specification C582. Results from previouslytested laminates ma

40、y be used provided that such laminateswere manufactured with the same resin, laminate type, andthickness within the previous five years.NOTE 9Reinforcements such as 24 oz/yd2(832 g/m2) produced witha 5 by 4 weave are considered equal in both directions for the purpose of5.1.2.5.2 Wall ThicknessThe r

41、equired wall thickness due tointernal pressure shall be determined by the following formula.Other loads such as thermal expansion and bending betweensupports should also be considered. The minimum wall thick-ness shall be the greater of 0.18 in. (4.5 mm) or 1 % of the pipeinside diameter.t 5P*ID!2*S

42、 2 P!where:t = calculated wall thickness, in. (mm) (see 6.1.2.3),P = design pressure, psi (kPa),ID = inside diameter of the pipe, in. (mm),S = allowable stress (not to exceed16 of the design basis),psi (kPa).5.3 Standard pressure classes are 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, and150 psi, however, custom classes

43、are allowed.NOTE 10Special design consideration should be given to pipe andfittings subject to vacuum or superimposed mechanical forces, or both,such as earthquakes, wind load, or burial loads, and to pipe and fittingssubject to service temperature in excess of 180F (82C).6. Laminates6.1 Laminate Co

44、nstructionThe laminate comprising thepipe wall shall consist of a corrosion barrier comprised of aninner surface and interior layer, a structural layer, and an outersurface.6.1.1 The Corrosion Barrier, consisting of the inner surfaceand interior layers, shall be included in the total thickness foral

45、l design calculations unless otherwise specified.6.1.1.1 Inner SurfaceThe inner surface exposed to thechemical environment shall be resin-rich and reinforced with atleast one layer of a suitable surfacing veil in accordance with4.2.1. Some chemical environments may warrant the use of asecond layer o

46、f surfacing veil. This resin-rich inner surface willcontain less than 20 % by weight of reinforcing material andhave a thickness between 0.010 and 0.020 in. (0.25 to 0.50mm)6.1.1.2 Interior LayerThe inner surface layer shall befollowed with a layer composed of resin reinforced only withnoncontinuous

47、 glass-fiber strands. This reinforcement shall beapplied as chopped strand mat or as chopped roving (spray upprocess) (either in accordance with 4.2.2) resulting in aminimum reinforcement weight of 112 oz/ft2(459 g/m2). Thecombined thickness of the inner surface and interior layer shallnot be less t

48、han 0.05 in. Depending on the chemicalenvironment, multiple 112 oz/ft2(459 g/m2) layers of choppedstrand applied as mat or spray up may be required. Two layersare most commonly used with as many as four or five layersoccasionally used in severe environments. When multiplelayers are used, each ply of

49、 mat or pass of chopped roving shallbe well rolled to eliminate all trapped air prior to the applica-tion of additional reinforcement. Glass content of the innersurface and the interior layer combined shall be 27 6 5%byweight, when tested in accordance with 10.4.6.1.2 Structural LayerSubsequent reinforcement shall beType I or Type II or “other” as described below. Types I and IIare described in further detail including laminate sequencesand thicknesses in Specification C582.6.1.2.1 Type I laminates consist of multiple layers of 1.5oz/ft2(0.4
