Ozone pipeline, as the name suggests, refers to a special pipeline used to transport ozone gas. In practical applications, ozone pipelines are mainly used in water treatment, air purification, food preservation and other fields. As an efficient and environmentally friendly oxidant, ozone has unique advantages in sterilization, disinfection, and removal of harmful substances. However, ozone is less stable. Therefore, you must use a hose with special material to avoid destorying the activity. Then next, let me introduce you some common hoses for ozone.
PTFE hose
PTFE is known as the “King of Plastics”. It has excellent chemical stability, high temp resistance and low friction coefficient. In the field of ozone pipeline, PTFE has become the material of choice due to its anti-corrosion, anti-wear and good sealing property. In addition, the inner surface of PTFE pipes is smooth. Thus the flow of ozone gas will be smooth. Besides, it helps reduce energy consumption.
PVC hose
PVC is a plastic material widely serves in industry, construction and daily life. Ozone hose has excellent chemical and aging resistance with high strength. In addition, PVC pipes are simple to process and low in cost. Therefore, in some situations where the performance requirements of pipelines are not high, PVC hose has a high cost performance.
Polypropylene hose
PP is a high density, non-toxic and heat resistant plastic material. Ozone pipes made of PP have excellent chemical stability, wear resistance and impact resistance. Due to the low density of PP material, the pipe is light in weight and easy to install. In addition, PP pipes have good welding properties, ensuring the sealing of pipe connections.
Fiberglass reinforced plastic hose
FRP is a high-performance composite material. It has the characteristics of light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance. FRP material has become a competitive pipe material due to its excellent compressive strength, flexural strength and tensile strength. In addition, FRP pipes have good corrosion resistance. Therefore it is suitable for a variety of harsh environments.
