Water Absorption of Polyethylene Heat-Shrinkable Tape

Abstract:

In this paper the water absorption properties of polyethylene shrink tape were analyzed for long-distance pipeline. In the water absorption experiments, the normal and high temperature type heat shrinkable tape from six different manufacturers were respectively immersed in water range from 24 h to 28 d. The results show that the water absorption of the normal and high temperature type heat shrinkable tape was steady under the condition of 144 h. Once exceeding 144h, the water absorption increased gradually. Furthermore, the glue layer of heat shrinkable tape had a greater impact on water absorption. And the water absorption of glue layer of heat shrinkable tape decreased with an increase of the hot glue layer thickness,
