ABOUT PIPES
The term plastic is derived from Greek word PLASTICKOS, which means, to access rubber and the other natural product . Resins are both natural synthetic. Natural resins range from pitch and asafoetida to frankincense, myrrh amber synthetic resins replaced natural resins. The first plastic PRAKESINE later called XYLONTIE, was invented by an English chemist and inventor ALXANDER PSRNES in 6. It was JOHN WHYATT of the USA who recognized in 1869, the vital palatalizing effect of camphor and named the product CELLULOID. LEO HENDRICK BAEKELAND, America chemist, commercially produced the first computer synthetic plastic from phenol and formaldehyde in . A significant property of most of the plastic is that they soften when heated. So that they can be formed into shapes, they became rigid on cooling. This property is derived from physical structure of poly vinyl chloride consists of a network of a large molecules called polymers . Long chains that separate under heat sufficiently to slide part, but cooling become firmly again. All plastic are manufactured by some methods of polymerization i.e., the process forming of the long chains and network of molecules.
INDUSTRIAL PLASTIC
Plastic which are used for the industrial purpose is called as industrial plastics. It is of two types. 1. structural foams. 2. sheet and films.
1.sructural foams:
It is of two types a) Rigid foams b) Flexible foams
Rigid foams:
Rigid polyether foams in sandwich foams have wide application a building component because of the stiffness imparted by the thickness foam centre for a given weight they are also best insolvent known today and so have wide applications in fitted slabs and are foamed into cavities at building site. A very important use of rigid foam is for furniture parts to produced wood structure.
Flexible foams:
Flexible foams, usually polyether urethane are made in slab foam up to 8 feet (2.4 meters) in which and as much as 5feet (1.5 meters) high; these are cut to required shapes or sizes or molded. Used almost exclusively by the automobiles industry for cash pads, arm sets and dash board covers.
Pipes have been manufactured in India from the 1960s on imported lines and thereafter indigenous plans were also established .there are few pipe manufactures up to 1978 to 1979 and production capacity was increased rustically during 1979-1983. Cement pipes were the conventional pipes used for irrigation in the lift irrigation schemes. Now days PVC pipes replaced the conventional pipes and they constitute almost 90% in the respect (because of break downs, difficult in mutability etc).The usage of polymer vinyl chlorides pipes in agriculture fields has lessened the water seepage which was predominant in earlier days. The government of India allowed the imports of sophisticated machinery of technology, which are not available indogeneously . The Europe and West Germany have competition in machinery production plastics and it is an essential need for them to carry out continuous research for the up-to-date technology, which gives higher output and good quality products. The state Government of AP is using rigid PVC pipes for irrigations and water suppliers for the past few years .The state government is producing PVC pipes through APSIDC (Andhra Pradesh State Irrigation Development Corporation ) for its irrigation schemes and other development schemes .The panchayatraj development is producing pipes for the public water supply schemes .The main distributors and individual connections can use these pipes.
