Hi Kate,
Two relining options: Cure In Place Pipe Lining and Epoxy Spray Lining, both having a different degree of water barrier, mechanical and service life properties.
In the first case, a soft polymer liner is impregnated with a glass reinforced polyester laminate, subsequently this is pulled through the damaged pipeline and moulded rigidly in place by water or air pressure.
In the second case, both resins are applied by a centrifugal spray lining machine. the thickness of the coating is controlled by the resin flow rate and the forward speed of the machine. The resin base and hardener are fed through separate hoses and are combined in a static mixer just behind the spray head. The resin is applied to the prepared internal surface of the pipe, forming a thick coating, preventing water penetration and corrosion.
Please inform us on your case for further assistance with lining material selection, methodologies (we are currently looking for case histories and studies with this regard).
Thanks,
Composite Analytica
