REINFORCED POLYMERIC PIPE AND METHOD OF ITS MAKING Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: pipeline engineering.

SUBSTANCE: reinforced polymeric pipe comprises inner and outer polymeric layer and reinforcing layer interposed between them and made of high-module fibers or cords, at least two layers of longitudinal rods and transverse rods wound on the longitudinal rods. The longitudinal rod is provided with thickenings throughout its length. The longitudinal rods of the first layer are submerged under the outer surface of the inner polymeric layer at a depth close to the half thickening. The method comprises making inner polymeric layer, laying the first layer of the longitudinal rods on its outer side, wounding transverse rods with interference, and forming the outer polymeric layer. Before laying, the longitudinal rods are provided with thickenings, and the outer side of the inner polymeric layer is heated up to plasticizing down to a depth of close to the half thickness. When winding the first transverse layer, the tension is chosen sufficient for the embedding the thickenings of the first layer of the longitudinal reinforce into the plasticized layer throughout its depth.

EFFECT: improved adhesion of reinforce with polymer.
