Full Text | The present invention relates to industrial polyolefin pipes (single-or multilayer), fittings, valves and vessels. Field of the invention The invention relates to an industrial polyolefin piping system with improved stiffness, impact strength for use at high service temperature, comprising single or multilayer pipes, fittings, valves, chambers and vessels, consisting of a propylene homopolymer, as well as a process for producing them. Background of the invention Pipes, injection molded parts and blow molded parts from propylene polymers are known (Moore, P., Polypropylene Handbook, Hanser Publishers Munich 1996, pp. 303-348). Of disadvantage of propylene polymer moldings from common propylene polymers are the insufficient impact properties of the moldings for industrial applications. Known methods for improving the impact properties are the use of blends comprising propylene polymers and butene polymers for producing pipes (EP 0 972 801), the use of blends comprising propylene polymers and hydrogenated butadiene-isoprene block copolymers for blow molded containers (JP 09,227,707) or the use of blends comprising propylene polymers and thermoplastic elastomers such as styrene-ethylene-butene-block copolymers or propylerie-ethylene-diene terpolymers for producing injection molded parts (DE 199 27 477). These molded articles have good impact properties, of disadvantage is however the reduced stiffness of the articles, Object of the invention It is the object of the present invention to provide an industrial polyolefin piping system with improved stiffness, impact strength for use at high service temperature, comprising pipes, fittings, valves and vessels from propylene polymers. Brief description of the invention According to the present invention, this object is achieved by an industrial polyolefin piping system with improved stiffness and impact strength for use at high service temperature, comprising single- or multilayer pipes, fittings, valves and vessels, consisting essentially of a propylene homopolymer with a melt index of 0.05 to 40 g/10 min at 230 C/2.16 kg, wherein the propylene homopolymer is p-nucleated and has an IRt ≥0.98, having a tensile modulus ≥1500 MPa, a Charpy impact strength at +23 °C of ≥30 kJ/m2, using notched test specimens, a Vicat B temperature ≥90 °C and a heat distortion temperature ≥100 °C. Detailed description of the invention p-nucleated propylene polymers are isotactic propylene polymers composed of chains in a 3i helical conformation having an internal microstructure of B-form spherulites being composed of radial arrays of parallel stacked lamellae. This microstructure can be realized by the addition of fi-nucleating agents to the melt and crystallization. The presence of the 6-form can be detected through the use of wide angle X-ray diffraction (Moore, J., Polypropylene Handbook, p. 134-135, Manser Publishers Munich 1996). The IRr of the propylene polymers is measured and calculated as described in EP 0 277 514 A2 on page 5 (column 7, line 53 to column 8, line 11). According to a preferred embodiment the p-nucleated propylene homopolymers have an IRt of SO.985. The difference of 0.005 in IR-c, IRt being a measure for isotacticity, encompasses a significant increase in mechanical polymer properties, especially in stiffness.
