In the field of raw materials for chemical production, the upstream and downstream related products of PP pipes mainly include the following aspects:

1. Upstream raw material

The main raw material of PP pipes is polypropylene (Polypropylene, referred to as PP), which is a thermoplastic. Polypropylene is produced by polymerization of propylene monomer, so propylene is the upstream raw material of PP pipe. In addition, the production process also needs to add some additives, such as stabilizers, lubricants, antioxidants, etc., to improve the performance of the pipe.

2. Downstream product

PP pipe has excellent corrosion resistance, heat resistance, electrical insulation and mechanical properties, so it is widely used in chemical industry, construction, water conservancy, electric power, transportation and other fields. The following are some downstream products related to PP pipes:

(1) Chemical equipment: PP pipes can be used to manufacture pipes, valves, flanges, etc. in chemical equipment to adapt to the transportation of corrosive media.

(2) Building water supply and drainage system: PP pipe can be used as the main pipeline and branch pipeline of building water supply and drainage system, which is used to transport domestic water and fire water.

(3) Water conservancy projects: PP pipes can be used in water conservancy projects in water pipelines to adapt to complex geological environments and long-distance transportation.

(4) Power engineering: PP pipe can be used as a cable protection sleeve to protect the power cable from the external environment.

(5) Traffic facilities: PP pipes can be used to manufacture guardrails, signs, etc. in traffic facilities to improve road safety performance.

In short, the upstream and downstream related products of PP pipes cover many fields, and their application range is wide, which is of great significance to promote the development of the chemical industry.
