Reinforced plastic using glass fiber or its products as a reinforcing material. It is called glass fiber reinforced plastic, or glass fiber reinforced plastic. Due to the different types of resins used, it is called polyester fiberglass, epoxy fiberglass, and phenolic fiberglass. Glass is hard and fragile, has good transparency, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and other properties; at the same time, steel is hard and not fragile, and also has the characteristics of high temperature resistance. So people began to think that if they could make a kind of glass that not only has the properties of glass hardness, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, but also has the characteristics of being hard and unbreakable like steel, then this material will be of great use. After research and experimentation, people finally produced such a composite material. It is a glass steel pipe that can stand shoulder to shoulder with steel.
With its unique strong corrosion resistance, smooth inner surface, low transportation energy consumption, long service life (more than 50 years), convenient transportation and installation, low maintenance cost and low comprehensive cost, FRP pipe has many advantages in petroleum, electric power, It has been widely used in industries such as chemical industry, papermaking, urban water supply and drainage, factory sewage treatment, sea water desalination, and gas transportation.
With the acceleration of China’s urbanization process, facing the balance and protection of population, resources and environment, governments at all levels are increasing their investment in urban infrastructure year by year, combining the needs of advanced science and technology, and increasing the variety and specifications of pipes and fittings. Production continues to increase, quality continues to improve, especially the faster development of plastic pipes, which has become a hot spot for investment today. Glass steel pipe is one of them.
